Queen Sources

Explore this page to find queens for your colonies.

Beekeeping operations that sell queens are linked below by province/region. Most of the operations listed produce local, Canadian queens. However, there are some operations that provide brokerage services for non-Canadian queens, an important service depending on the time of year and availability of local queens.

Please note that Newfoundland requires import permits and places strict conditions and quarantines on imports when granted.
