Stewardship Breeding with the West Virginia Queen Producers
Taking care of the honey bees that God has given us is a matter of being good stewards. We work with fellow members of the West Virginia Queen Producers Co-op to evaluate, strengthen, and propagate lines of honey bees that bite, fight, maul, and groom the varroa destructor mite. When you buy queens from us and help us evaluate them, you are taking part in our stewardship of God’s beautiful creation.

Connect with us and learn how you can help a rural family start their own apiary.
