About the Farm
McFarline Apiaries emerged from the passion and dedication of Timothy McFarline, who began his journey into beekeeping in 2009. What started as a small endeavor has blossomed into a thriving operation that exemplifies the art and science of sustainable apiculture. Tim's commitment to his craft led him to establish McFarline Apiary as a formal business two years ago, transforming years of experience into a mission-driven enterprise.
The heart of McFarline Apiaries lies in its extraordinary growth and careful breeding practices. From six carefully selected queens sourced from other treatment-free apiaries, Tim has cultivated an impressive colony of approximately 200 hives. This remarkable expansion reflects not just numerical success, but a deep understanding of bee biology and natural husbandry methods that prioritize the health and resilience of the colonies above all else.
The vision that drives McFarline Apiaries extends far beyond honey production. Tim's goal is to develop a diverse gene pool of productive, disease and mite resistant, gentle bees that are perfectly adapted to northern seasons. This commitment to natural, treatment-free beekeeping allows the farm to share surplus bees, honey, and propolis with the community while maintaining the highest standards of quality. The farm firmly believes in bringing raw honey from untreated bees and time-tested herbal products that work, viewing their harvest as a privilege to share with others so it may enrich lives as much as it has enriched their own.
