We have an option to get your nuc in a wood box which you can return for a $10 refund or keep as a swarm trap.  As most of the plastic boxes go into the garbage we wanted to offer a more eco option.

*Note for when you pick up your bees

- transport is the responsibility of the new happy owner of the bees 
- you may want to bring your protective clothing
- it's best to pick them up when it is still cool (morning), or 15 minutes before dark. (night transport is the best)
- the optimal transport is the back of a pickup, although bees can be transported by car at your own risk
- it is up to you as the new owner of the bees to decide how best to move your bees
- for car transport you may wish to bring a sheet or netting to cover the bees
- we are not responsible for bees that get over heated once they leave our care
- all bees sold are in need of larger living quarters right away. Nucs will need to be installed into waiting 10 frame equipment. 
- many recommend feeding nucs especially if they are being installed on un-drawn (new) foundation (Get your sugar syrup ready!).

**We do not ship bees.  Pick up in Wellesley only.
