Amish-Crafted Quality — Made in the USA

This 8-Frame Unassembled Beehive Kit offers exceptional craftsmanship and flexibility for every beekeeper. Built by Amish artisans in Ohio, each component is made from premium Eastern White Pine, precision-cut to ensure perfect alignment and long-lasting strength.

With one deep brood box for brood rearing and one medium honey super for honey storage, this hive provides the perfect setup for building a healthy, productive colony. All frames and 100% wax-coated foundations are included, giving you everything you need to assemble a premium-quality hive at home.

Why Choose an 8-Frame Hive?

8-frame hives offer the same functionality as 10-frame setups but are 20% lighter, making them easier to handle during inspections and harvests. This size is ideal for backyard beekeepers who value manageable weight and efficient colony growth.
