2026 Bee Pick Up

WELCOME TO OUR FAVORITE DAY OF THE YEAR


Bee Pick Up Hours:

Friday, 12pm - 4pm

Saturday, 9am - 2pm

You will pick up your bees at our Lenexa warehouse on the weekend that you selected. You may come at any point during bee pick up hours. 

Please park and check in at the desk, we will get your bees ready for you. If you need to pick up any supplies our shop will be open. We recommend bringing gloves so that your hands are safe while you carry your bees to the car although we don't have many issues with stinging. 

You should expect to see a few bees flying in the air, although we try to keep them contained. If this makes you nervous you can wear a veil. 

If you have a bulk order of bees we will check you in at the front desk then we will direct you to our loading dock where we will help you load.

 You must check in at the front desk first.  

You should plan on feeding your bees 1:1 sugar syrup for the next few weeks. Please make this in advance and have it ready. We have a few types of liquid feed available to purchase if you need. 
Vehicle information: We do not recommend putting bees in a small trunk in your car. This can overheat the bees. Packages are small and can easily ride in your car. Your nuc will come with a mesh bag around it, we suggest putting it in the floorboards of your car/truck or in a covered truck bed. 
If you are picking up a single hive you must arrive in a truck. We do not recommend putting a single beehive inside a closed car. These will not have nets around them.
