Bees

Each colony we place contains roughly 60,000 honey bees. Each individual bee can have over 1,200 pollination events in one day. Your hives will immediately begin providing ecological services by pollinating and foraging for nectar within the surrounding 18,000 acres. We use local survivor stock and locally bred queens from Santa Clara County in all of our apiaries. The bees have been selected for gentleness, varroa mite resistance, and honey production.
