Complete Beehive With Honeybees Delivery - Deposit for 2025

We have for sale good-tempered and productive honey bees on 5 National frames. Our queens are either Buckfast or raised locally from selected stocks.

Local Honey Man bees arrive with a mated honey bee queen, bees, frames of brood in all stages – eggs, open larvae, and sealed larvae – and stores of pollen and honey. The bees travel in two lightweight transit boxes which will be useful for collecting future swarms.

Supply is dependent on Spring colony development and the weather. Please bear in mind that honey bees are livestock and that delivery/collection is variable. We will update you regularly regarding a delivery date.

Please note when placing an order you will be added to our waiting list, once your order is ready we will contact you.

At Local Honey Man we aim to supply overwintered 2024 honey bee colonies as well as 2025 colonies later in the season. Overwintered honey bees will give you productive colonies early in the season, and are ideal for starting out in beekeeping or if you’re looking to expand. Bees will be available from Spring 2025, depending on the weather.

Our motto is simple; Honey saves Hives. We’re much more than just honey suppliers and beekeepers – we encourage people to become beekeepers themselves.

At Local Honey Man you’ll find quality hives and honey bees for sale to get you started on your planet-saving, pollinator-friendly beekeeping quest. We offer National hives in cedar or polystyrene, either a full 11-frame colony or a 5-frame nucleus of honey bees, and Buckfast queen bees for sale during the season.

It’s time to join the local honey revolution!

We are champions of the bee saving community. When you buy a jar of honey, or any bees or bee product, from us not only are you getting 100% pure and unpasteurised honey straight from your local hive, you’re also helping to protect the British honey bee - one of the world’s smallest, but greatest wonders.

Our real honey has no additives, no nonsense, just premium British raw honey, just as nature intended. That’s the Local Honey Man way!
