Both my colonies died off sometime in December, piles of dead bees on the bottom boards. I’m through with packages from GA. Looking for recommendations on where to purchase locally raised nucs, willing to drive a couple hours from Worcester area.

Wetlands apiary sells hardy overwintered queen. If I buy a Georgia package , first thing I do is buy a local, overwintered queen, and requeen immediately. Bee life is so short , come winter Georgia bees have been replaced by overwintered offspring. +1 (508) 587-2388
