Hiram Rodriguez Offers Five-Frame Bee Nucs to Lakeland Beekeepers

Lakeland beekeepers looking to expand their apiaries or start new hives have an opportunity to purchase five-frame bee nucs directly from local resident Hiram Rodriguez. Rodriguez, a known figure in the local beekeeping community, announced the availability of these nucleus colonies, which are essential for establishing new bee colonies.

A five-frame nuc typically includes a laying queen, worker bees, brood in various stages of development, and honey and pollen stores, providing a strong foundation for a new hive. This local offering allows beekeepers to acquire healthy, established colonies without the need for long-distance transport, which can stress bees in Florida's warm climate.

Interested individuals are encouraged to contact Hiram Rodriguez directly for pricing and availability. This initiative supports local beekeeping efforts and contributes to the health of Lakeland's pollinator population, crucial for the area's citrus groves and the blooms around its many lakes.
