Our Story

From just a single hive to over 300 thriving colonies in 2020, we've been on quite a journey.  There's so much to learn (and love) about beekeeping, from the fascinating creatures themselves to the miracle of making honey, we continued to be drawn-in to more and more aspects of this wonderful hobby-turned-business.  It was good-bye corporate America and hello agricultural USA for both my daughter, Rachel, and me.

As a father-daughter duo out of Selma, AL, we're working to not only grow happy health bee colonies, we want to bring that same experience and joy to others. Our goal is to provide most things bees such as:

  • Nucleus hives

  • Queen bees

  • Honey/honeycomb

  • Complete hand-crafted, populated hives

  • Pollination to local small farmers

We invite you to look around our new website, and hope to meet you soon!

Forever hives is Unmatched.

This is NOT your assembly line big-box product. Each element of the hive is made from scratch and every hive is raised with extreme care and love. We cherish the work little honey bees do and we want to share that with you.
