West Virginia Beekeeping Supplies

Located in the Appalachian region of the Southern and Mid-Atlantic U.S., West Virginia is as rich in natural beauty as it is in history. Boasting several breathtaking state parks across the state including Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, this is one place you should definitely include on your travel bucket list. Fall in West Virginia is especially mesmerizing, so road trips are encouraged.  Because West Virginia is the only state to have emerged out of the Civil War, you’ll discover its many one-of-a-kind historical destinations such as its Civil War battlefields, preserved coal mining towns, and other historical landmarks. And just as the state has evolved over time while still being deeply rooted in its heritage, beekeeping has also been a budding business in West Virginia for over 100 years. We strongly support beekeepers by supplying package bees for sale, along with beekeeping supplies for your backyard beehive or commercial beekeeping business.

At Mountain Sweet Honey Company, we are committed to supplying customers with quality honey bees, beekeeping supplies, and superb customer service. Our apiaries are in the beautiful northeast Georgia mountains, and we ship bees weekly from mid-March to May.

FAQ

In most areas, spring is the best time to start your beekeeping journey. As the cold season ends, an increase in forage makes it the perfect environment for a new hive to thrive. Plus expanding colonies make it the easiest time to source a colony of bees to call your own.

Most beekeepers have 1 to 2 acres of land with 2 or 3 beehives. If you live in a subdivision we highly recommend you check your HOA governance documents and speak to your neighbors first before placing any colonies on your land.

Beekeepers with 300 or further hives are considered marketable beekeepers, and their beekeeping businesses can be veritably profitable. Numerous marketable beekeepers resettle their colonies to give pollination services to growers while contemporaneously furnishing their notions with abundant quencher sources for honey production.
