Amish-Crafted Quality — Made in the USA

This 8-Frame Fully Assembled & Painted Beehive Kit is the perfect combination of craftsmanship, beauty, and functionality. Handcrafted by Amish woodworkers in Ohio using premium Eastern White Pine, this hive is built for strength, precision, and longevity—then finished with a protective, professional-grade exterior paint for year-round durability.

With one deep brood box pre-assembled and painted, this kit is ideal for starting a colony, creating splits, or expanding your existing apiary. Each frame comes pre-installed with 100% wax-coated foundations, ensuring a smooth start for your bees and a long-lasting hive setup.

Why Choose an 8-Frame Hive?

8-frame hives are approximately 20% lighter than traditional 10-frame setups—easier to lift, inspect, and transport—without sacrificing productivity or standard Langstroth compatibility. Perfect for hobbyists and professionals alike.
