Amish-Crafted Quality — Made in the USA
This 8-Frame Fully Assembled Beehive Kit combines traditional Amish craftsmanship with ready-to-use convenience. Handcrafted in Ohio from premium Eastern White Pine, each hive component is built with precision for a tight, square fit and long-term durability.
Perfect for both beginners and experienced beekeepers, this single-deep hive arrives fully assembled with frames and wax-coated foundations installed, allowing you to start your colony immediately—no nails, no tools, no setup required.
Why Choose an 8-Frame Hive?
8-frame hives are lighter and easier to manage than traditional 10-frame setups—roughly 20% less weight while maintaining full Langstroth compatibility. This makes inspections, transportation, and honey harvesting more comfortable without sacrificing productivity.
