Meet Queen Beatrix

Queen Beatrix began life in 2023 in north Georgia and joined Sleeping Bear Hives in March 2024. Being our first hive, it has been rewarding to watch her hive grow and thrive. She has been quite elusive so far and only been seen once! I know she’s healthy and doing fine as there are always a multitude of bees along with eggs and larve in several stages. Beatrix’s hive had its first honey harvest in June 2024.
