Get your backyard buzzing with a ready-to-install Starter Honey Bee Hive Package from Russian River Bees. This $90 deposit secures your complete hive, applied toward the total package price of $490.
Each hive is carefully prepared and includes a new Spring 2026 queen and 3–5 frames of healthy, active bees, giving your colony a strong start. The package also includes a metal lid with a thicker inner cover, a deep hive box with 10 frames, and a bottom board with an observation panel, allowing you to monitor hive activity with ease.
The remaining $400 balance is due at pickup (cash). Hives will be available for pickup in Forestville, California, and detailed directions will be provided prior to collection.
