Reviews
I've been really delighted with these Buckfast bees. They are so gentle and industrious. The nuc arrived on schedule, and while setting up the frames in their permanent hive, I could immediately see the queen bee. I'm a new beekeeper, and Artem has been so helpful in staying in contact and answering my questions and concerns. He even took a look at some pictures I took from the first inspection of the frames and gave me helpful feedback. I highly recommend both the bees and the company.
I am a new beekeeper and Artem came recommended. I have to say I have been delighted with both the quality of the nuc (bees, frames and box) as well as Artem's aftersale care. Despite being late in the season, the bees have established themselves quickly and have produced a small batch of honey. Artem's advice in getting started have proven invaluable and were greatly appreciated. I would strongly recommend both the products and the team at Tyrell.
