Providing high quality queens to Canadian beekeepers since 2001.

Canadian farmers rely on over 250,000 imported bees each year for honey production and pollination.

Our mission is to supply high quality queens early in the season to support farmers in ensuring the most productive colonies possible.

Our queens are available weekly from March until July.

Early Queen Arrivals provides high-quality queens to Canadian beekeepers at great prices for early season splits, re-queening or pollination needs. We provide customers with queens from Australia, California, Italy, Ukraine, Chile, and Canada. This year we will also be offering nucs and packages on a first come-first served basis.
