100% beeswax foundation to fit the Layens frame. Beeswax foundation is far superior to unnatural plastic. Our foundation is 1/8” thick for strength when extracting. The Starter Strips are 2” in width to give the bees a good start. Depending on how you plan to install your bees (Nuc or Package) and your method of extracting honey, contact us for the various options you can utilize.

Made from spruce. Our top quality glued and stapled Layens frames are fully assembled and wired to the standardized 16” x 13” size and ready for natural beeswax foundation.

The ultimate solution for overwintering. Quality spruce wood frame with natural wool insulation 2 inches thick sandwiched between plastic mesh top and bottom to retain warmth and let moisture out. This frame goes on top of the Layens frames inside the hive under the top cover. Bees stay warm and dry no matter the winter weather. There is nothing better.
