Mission Statement:

Our mission is to maintain a survivable, productive and gentle line of bees that can thrive without chemical intervention.

During the development of our line of Enhanced Survival Queens (GoldLine), we realized that currently accepted evaluative breeding programs used by most breeder/researchers today, simply do not work.

Over the last 20 to 25 years beekeepers have experienced many good and unfortunately bad lines of bees.  Most of them require the use of harsh persistent chemicals that result in weaker bees, poisoned honey and super virulent mites.

Whether you are a hobbyist that wants to make a few gallons of chemical free honey or a large honey producer that wants to produce more honey at a lower cost, try our girls and see if they work for you.
