Commenting on review from JR who states living in California. I have questions. What are facts…read morebehind the loss of their bees? Has JR taken any classes, joined bee club or buy any books? Jrs review is missing quite a few details. I purchased a package AND a nuc last spring from these folks as well as 3 queens over summer. I am picking up 2 queens next week and THREE nucs next month. I am entering my 2d year of beekeeping and last year split the nuc and the package. I am splitting the original nuc AGAIN this year as well as the split from the original nuc this year. My package split wasn't so successful because one colony absconded. That happens. I may have to split the original package this year....will wait and see. As for your comments about "old" frames. Yes...the frames may be old...not sure. HOWEVER...I have had nothing but GREAT luck with their bees. The nuc I purchased last year clearly was successful. I have four hives currently (two double deeps and 2 single deeps. Splitting the doubles next week and installing the queens I am picking up). I probably will not be buying nucs next year. Perhaps some queens because I expect to have at least NINE hives by fall this year if not more because of needed splits.

Bees. I don't know a whole lot about bees, but I will tell you where to go if you want to find out…read moreanything about'em: RIGHT HERE! When it comes to everything to do with bees, the people inside this store will have the answers as well as all of the hardware you might need, including the little flying stinging cusses themselves! Yes, they sell bees here! They also offer beginning beekeeper classes for $99. The guys inside said that the first thing they do in the class is take you out to the beehive field nearby and let you test your bee grit. You know, to see if you can go out and discover for yourself if you're cut out for this hobby. Because really, do you have what it takes to be a beekeeper and be swarmed and stung by bees all of the time? Or are you terrified of them and want to run away screaming in terror? But you never know, you just might be a bee whisperer, like that chick in Fried Green Tomatoes, who could just walk up to a hive and stick her hand in and grab the honey without ever getting stung. Or on the flipside, it might turn out like it did for Macaulay Culkin's character in My Girl where he is killed by a hoard of angry bees! Regardless, this is the place to come to on your journey to finding it all out one way or another. For only $99, you will know for certain if beekeeping is right for you, and if it is, well then, you can drop another $1100 to acquire everything you need to start! If none of this beekeeping shit sits well with you, then hey! They also sell honey here.

Told them I didn't want to spend more than $200 total but was ok spending that much if both saws ran like near new again. They verbally said total should be around $125 unless something was really bad. So 3 weeks after they said they should be done they said one was finished. It's total was $98. Then I'm told they could work on the other saw because the handle was broke so I agreed to let them fix it. No biggie as handle is under $35. When that saw was done it was $132. Here's where it gets good. The one saw is missing the oiler screw that I thought they were going to fix. Nope. The pull rope doesn't go all the way back in. Didn't look at that either. So WTF did they do? They "looked" over the entire saw and changed the spark plug and gas filter. That's it. So for not $125 but for $230 I basically got a new handle. I can change the spark plug in 2 minutes myself. And how the crap does a chainsaw repair shop NOT see the oiler screw completely missing, do they not test the saws for proper lubrication? I for sure thought they changed a carburetor (or both). Or at minimum had to adjust the carbs. Not sure how one can charge that much to change 2 spark plugs and 2 gas filters on a freaking chainsaw with a straight face.

They do offer military discount upon request and they will save your number to keep you in their system so you don't have to keep showing your ID.

They take such a good care of their plants here. You don't see any wilting or dying plants you only see thriving plants. And also, they have such unusual plants that I don't find anywhere else. Today I saw LITHOPS which are living rocks. They're not actually rocks are actually little plants, but they look like rocks. So interesting! I also found Coral Bells in two different colors. I cannot resist these. They are going to make an excellent addition to my garden. This store is medium priced, but their plants are high-quality. I will again come to the store to browse, and most likely I will purchase something else Amazing! In addition to plants, they have pots and trellises and soil and everything that you would need to build your garden. Their employees are also quite knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend you visit.
