WE DO NOT SHIP NUCS! LOCAL PICKUP AT OUR APIARY IN MARENGO IS THE ONLY OPTION.

Nucs consist of 2-3 frames of brood in all stages of development (egg, larva & capped), a frame of resources (honey/nectar & pollen) and an empty frame of foundation for the bees to work. Bee frame coverage will be 4-5 frames.

All queens will be reared in April and are guaranteed to be mated and laying solid brood patterns. These first-year queens are fresh and ready to give you the best results. If managed correctly it is possible to obtain a honey yield your first season as this is already a functioning colony at the time of pick-up.

Pick-up date will vary based on Spring weather patterns and nuc build up, but we typically shoot for the 2nd or 3rd weekend in May. This information will be communicated with customers via the email on file with us when you place your order.

** Quantity discounts are available for orders of five (5) or more. If interested in quantity discounts, email jeff@ouiskarunfarm.com **
