Propola is the Buzz at the Nation's Biggest Bee Shows!

It's certainly been an exciting few weeks for the Premier Bee team.

We started the year with the launch of our brand-new product, the Propola hive, at the North American Honey Bee Expo in Louisville, Kentucky.

What a great show it was for all involved. A huge thank-you to the outstanding staff, speakers, vendors, and the ~3,000 people in attendance for contributing to such an exciting event for the beekeeping community.

And a special thank-you to Drs. Marla Spivak and Mike Simone-Finstrom for speaking at the expo, sharing their invaluable research on propolis, and spending time with us in our booth.

Thankfully, there are some great recap videos for you to wade through. Click the thumbnails below to see some interviews in the Premier Bee booth showcasing the all-new Propola hive!

It sure was a great feeling to release Propola to the bee world and receive our same level of enthusiasm in response.

We spent most of last week in New Orleans, Louisiana, for the American Beekeeping Federation (ABF) conference.

It was another great week of talking with customers, hearing from some of the world's leading bee researchers (like Dr. Sam Ramsey), and of course, some NOLA cajun seafood.


It's been a blizzard in more ways than one.

Though things are as busy as ever around the Premier Bee factory, our amazing team is ready to meet your needs for the upcoming season.
