What Makes Our Queens Unique…

In summer of 2022 we had a surprise visit From Chef Melissa King & the National Geographic/Mazda crew filming their : “Tasting Wild” series near our apiary … Olympic Wilderness Apiary has a cameo appearance in the beginning of their “Coastline” segment.  And while it highlights our special Fireweed Honey, we think the entire segment also gives a beautiful visual representation of just how isolated our Wilderness Apiary is.

This unique location is an important factor in the success of our Wild-Survivor -Breeding Program over the past two and a half decades.

And while the term “Survivor Bees” is frequently used in honeybee sales advertising, we believe the Sustainability of the Breeding Stock we develop and refine in this environment gives us the right to claim “Original Survivor” status…
