New to beekeeping?
Start with our Beekeeping for Beginners guide: sting safety, essential equipment, choosing an apiary, buying and transferring your first nuc, and caring for your bees through their first season.
Our beekeeping section brings together nucleus colonies, queens and practical guidance for your apiary. Looking for honey, candles, skincare or gifts? Visit our product shop.
Spring 2027 nuc reservations are open.
Choose National or Langstroth five-frame nucs, £350 each with a £50 deposit. UK mainland delivery is included in the £350 price, or collect by arrangement from Overton-on-Dee at the same price. Dispatch or collection is expected late April to early May 2027, depending on weather and colony readiness. Nuc delivery is to the UK mainland only; Northern Ireland and offshore islands are excluded. Queen sales are coming soon.
