The honey bees for sale are properly mated queens from known and purchased Queen Mother stock that are grafted and mated locally. We verify the new queens laying patterns before selling them to provide a quality product.
If the honey bees for sale that you are purchasing are a 5-frame NUC, we offer different ways you can do this to allow for any budget.
- You can do a “BYOB” (bring your own box) for the most economical purchase, where you come to the farm and pick up your bees placing our 5-frames right into your own 5-frame or 10-frame box.
- The next level up includes an EZ NUC that you can pick up your bees in, simply close the entrance, tape the lid and you are on your way.
- Lastly, we also build custom wooden 5-frame NUC boxes (unpainted) that you can pick up your bees in. We will put a screen across the entrance, bring a ratchet strap and you are on your way. Don’t forget to move the bees into a 10-frame box and paint that box after you do.

Raw Tropical Honey
Our honey is all natural, fresh, raw tropical honey from hives on our farm produced locally by our Cape Coral honey bees. Certain seasonal, mono floral varieties may be from neighboring counties.
The honey is packed full of natural vitamins, minerals and enzymes straight from the bees. The benefits of raw honey have been studied and debated over the years. Its use for healing dates back thousands of years in human history. It is said to help allergies, arthritis and act as the healing agent for many other ailments. Our raw honey is gently screened without any heat and never pasteurized to preserve its natural enzymes and pollen content. Our honey is 100 % pure and is never mixed with lower quality honey or corn syrup nor artificial additives.
** It is not recommended to give honey to infants under the age of 1, because they do not have fully developed immune systems **
Some items are seasonal and as a small farm our quantities are limited.
Here you will find:
- Tropical Monofloral Honey (seasonal)
- Tropical Wildflower Honey
- Small batch handcrafted Herbal Infused Honey
- Small batch handcrafted Herbal Honey
Herbal honey still has the herbs in the bottle, whereas Herbal Infused Honey has the herbs screened out. Infused honey is gently warmed (below 110F) in small batches to maintain the enzymes that make honey so beneficial.
We do not have honey bees for sale from our bee removals!
The honey bees that come to the farm from bee removals are quarantined for a period of time to allow us to monitor them for any pests or diseases as well as temperament. In most cases, we have to re-queen these colonies to help dilute the africanized traits that are common in our region; therefore. they are not for sale.
