FOUR GENERATIONS OF BEEKEEPERS

A TASTE OF THE SWEET LIFE

Who We Are

Beekeeping, Honey producers, Package bee and queen importer.

We are third, and into the fourth, generation of beekeepers and bee importers with no signs of stopping any time soon.

At 1500 hives and growing we are a fairly large commercial operation for our area, but quite small compared to some of our beekeeping friends in Alberta and Saskatchewan and even smaller compared to our colleagues in New Zealand, Arataki Honey Ltd who operate over 20000 hives. One major difference in operations is the lack of pollination contracts in Manitoba meaning we are strictly honey producers, so we live and die, as the saying goes, by the fortunes the Lord and land offer. The truth is, we farm because we like the lifestyle and the connectedness to nature, not because we plan to get rich...although that wouldn't hurt either.

We are a  family farm operation running as an incorporated partnership. Located in Kleefeld, Manitoba where it has been for over 35 years.
