Does anyone have an idea where I could buy a few thousand gallons of good Canadian bees? I'm looking for a long term supplier. Loose cell or block

Shoot I normally sell some each year but not this year. You can try Pask Farms 306-745-2571 or Mennie Farms 306-747-3050. Just 2 from Saskatchewan that I have dealt with that are solid.

You can also try MR pollination services out of Coaldale AB. Has been in the business for many years and is very helpful.

Average. Its always been a sideline so plays second fiddle to canola.(for spray timing etc.) But its not that kind of crop. It has to be first or you get nothing. Its good diversification. If we ever get a cracking hot July it'll be jackpot time. Lately would have made more with regular crops. But all the exercise is worth something.

Where are you at?

I admired your attitude!! I would like to find someone who could provide a couple thousand gallons every fall under three year committment , the price would be preset and the cells picked up and paid for every fall after the tests are ran.

Hi we would have approx. 280 gallons of bees for sale not all you need but some.Where are you located?

 

[skgrain]

Too late I tried that question.

Fascinating little buggers. The bloke I worked for in Montana used to produce them and grow seed Alfalfa, unfortunately he is not there anymore.

Dont know the volumes but we used to have garbage bins full.

Just checking to see If you found the bees needed. I have good clean bees and would be able to provide consistent supply needed. Have dealt many times with dealers mentioned here by others but would be happy to deal direct with private farmer. I would be happy to discuss options for future.
