Do you deliver to upcountry areas in Kenya?
Yes, we ship nationwide using trusted courier services like G4S, Wells Fargo, and Easy Coach. Delivery typically takes 1-3 business days depending on your location. Shipping costs are calculated based on the weight and size of your items.
Can I pick up my order directly from your shop?

Products & Quality
Are your beehives treated or sold as raw wood?
Our Langstroth and Kenya Top Bar Hives (KTBH) are sold as raw, locally sourced cypress wood. We intentionally leave them untreated with toxic chemicals to ensure the safety of your bees and honey. We recommend painting the exterior only with weatherproof paint to protect the wood from the elements.
Do you offer warranties on your honey extractors?
Yes, our stainless steel extractors come with a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects. This covers the motor and welding. Please note that damage caused by improper use or dropping is not covered.
Can I get expert advice on which equipment to buy as a beginner?
Of course! Our team includes active beekeepers who understand the craft. Message us on WhatsApp with your goals (e.g., starting 2 hives in a rural area), and we will recommend the most cost-effective, durable gear for your specific needs.
