Over the years I’ve followed Griff and Angharad’s progress in the Beekeeping world . They are couple that we all feel we know from seeing them on the interweb . I made my first purchase from them many years ago when I took up beekeeping and that was one of their well made hive / super carriers . I still use it to this day .
Scroll forward five years I decided this is the year I am going to create my own Queens . I have chosen to go down the mini mating nuc route . Having , researched what I wanted I search the interweb and discovered that this lovely couple could supply what I wanted at a very competitive price . It was a no brainer . I promptly ordered and received quickly and well packaged with one of their thank you cards with in . I will deal again with this fabulous couple . I’ll try and make sure it isn’t so long this time !
