Nuc of Bees Spring 2025, Berkeley, California
NUCS ON SALE THROUGH JANUARY!
Reserve your 2025 spring nuc now. Payment options include cash or credit card on this website. Please note that we offer LOCAL PICK UP ONLY in Berkeley, CA, as we do not ship nucs.
If you choose to pay with cash, please contact Kelsey at (707) 483-1302 to get on our cash list. Be prepared to provide your email and phone number for contact regarding pick up. A $60 nonrefundable Venmo deposit (@telegraphbeeco) is required for cash customers, with the remaining $140 due in cash at the time of nuc pick up in the spring.
Our queens are locally produced by Kelsey and will be freshly made in the spring of 2025. I selectively breed my queens to ensure they maintain low mite levels, are gentle to work with, and produce outstanding honey crops. Additionally, I perform an oxalic acid dribble on our nucs 21 days after preparing them, which effectively reduces mite populations, resulting in a clean and healthy hive to begin your beekeeping journey.
I provide a 21-day guarantee and consultation. Should any issues arise with your nuc or queen within the first 21 days of pick up, I will replace it free of charge. I’m available to assist my nuc customers by answering any questions during this initial period at no cost. Do not hesitate to reach out to Kelsey at (707) 483-1302 for support; we aim to ensure both the bees and the beekeeper thrive right from the start.
In-person general consultations are available for $100 per hour. Contact Kelsey to schedule an appointment.
While we anticipate having the nucs ready by mid-April, please note that weather conditions may cause potential delays, pushing availability to late April or early May. We will keep you updated via email regarding the projected timing for pick up as spring unfolds.
Pick up will take place in Berkeley, CA.
