Quarryview Apiary

Spring has sprung at Quarryview! We went into the winter with 9 hives and came out with 7. Considering for our first year that’s not to shabby. Stay tuned for our late spring early summer harvest!

SOLD OUT!! See you all in the spring! SOLD OUT!! See you all in the spring!

We love our customers and some of you may be wondering "what is with this one small egg?" Lol it is a cutie next to that double yolker, but rest assured what's inside is delicious and nutritious! This egg is special to us at Quarryview Apiary. In case you missed it, Baby is our silkie cross that was the first chick ever born on the Quarryview homestead; it was such an exciting day! She joined our farm family on July 22nd. Now baby is big (as big as a silkie can be ) and is laying eggs just like her mama, Liz, showed her. She's so proud of her eggs and we're so proud of her that we wanted to share such a special hen with all of our amazing customers by including one of her eggs in every carton. You go Baby!

It’s that time again!! Last harvest of the season happening tomorrow!! https://youtu.be/QL-0TAw5rjg

Hive #2. One of Quarryview’s strongest hives. Can you guess how many bees are in a hive?

We got some great news this morning, we are now OFFICIALLY Registered with (OMAFRA) Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs. We got some great news this morning, we are now OFFICIALLY Registered with (OMAFRA) Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.

It was an exciting day at Quarryview today! Join us in welcoming the newest addition to our little farm Jay and I can't wait to see who else will be on the way this week!

On these hot days, you can see that the honey bee will leave its hive and beard on the outside of the hive. Fanning to keep the inside temperature down. Fact: Honey bees keep the inside of their hive at 90-95F at all times!
