Welcome to Mcfarline Apiaries!
Our vision is to have a diverse gene pool of productive, disease and mite resistant, gentle bees well adapted to the northern seasons that can supply surplus bees, honey and propolis to share with the community. It is our privilege to bring the harvest to you that it may enrich your life as much as it has ours. McFarline’s Apiary is firmly committed to bringing you Raw Honey from untreated bees, and time tested herbal products that work.
