Welcome to Chilton Bee Company and thank you for visiting us. We have been beekeepers for 10 years now and manage around 400 to 450 colonies. We take a lot of pride in our products and the bees that we produce. If you have purchased from us in the past I want to thank you for your business.
Our bees are highly mite-resistant, very hygienic and heavily possess Russian genetics. We originally began with very hygienic bees and although not originally our intent, we have never treated our bees for mites. We did have a fair amount of losses for a couple of Winters, but as time went on our survivors became resilient in their own defense against Varroa mites. Our mite washes now consistently measure at around 1% mite counts in August and September.

Let customers speak for us
from 17 reviewsWonderful scent, long lasting! Melts great. I'll be buying again.
This lotion is truly amazing. It is moisture rich, not greasy, soft scent. I think it has actually helped the dark circles under my eyes. And, just a dab tamed my frizzy hair.
This is my favorite honey and it is locally made. We use the honey the most but I’ve also tried the creamed honey and it is heavenly. Also like the chap stick. The owners are so nice. I highly recommend CHILTON BEE COMPANY!!
Totally satisfied with the spring 24 nuc purchased from Chilton Bee Company. It was a pleasure to do business with Brad and thankful for all the advice he gave. Really appreciate all his utube videos about the bee farming.
I purchased a five frame nuc in the beginning of the year. Easy pick up. All of the bees were and are healthy very good laying queen and very calm but active colony now. Thanks to Chilton bee Co. Will buy from them again.
The nucs were very full and healthy. Very polite and helpful agent. I'll order earlier next time that I need some.
Nucs were full and are doing great
Great nucs! Healthy bees! Easy pick up
Nice meeting you! Job well done. Both nucs are thriving and doing great. Thank you. Tt
We love the body butter and lotion! It leaves your skin so soft and smells so good. I have sensitive skin and have never had an issue!
Thank you! We love it. Our new favorite!
I first received this candle as a gift and enjoyed it so much that I ordered 3 more. It is such a pleasant scent - not overpowering at all. Although I had almost quit using candles due to their heavy scent, this candle brought me back into the fold!
The 3 wick soy candles are much larger than most and have lovely scents that permeate the home without overpowering. Highly recommend this company, as the products are all high quality. Lip balm, lotion, body cream and honey are all amazing as well!
