Stranks Bee Farm

We put a lot of time, thought and experimenting into our beekeeping equipment. We are not a “beekeeping supply store” but simply beekeepers trying to offer other beekeepers a better option for hives. As such we do not keep much stock. Our process is as follows — You order beekeeping equipment, we manufacture it for you, and let you know it is ready for you.

Double box hive

This is the second double box we’ve purchased from Patrick . We have found the workmanship exceptional. The second hive was almost completely assembled so that was awesome!!! I love that the boxes fit together so well so less space for pests to get in and bees to protect. I also love that the roof is large to cover the entrance and keep drips off the bees entrance. Just an excellent product well made. Thank you!
The only issue was : the box was quite large and heavy so I couldn’t actually it out of the post office into my car. Had to call the spouse to get it home.
