Beecentric Hive WebsiteBeecentric Hive produces beehives modeled after hollow trees where honeybees live naturally. The design uses 8-frame medium Langstroth boxes for overwintering clusters, Warre-style insulated top quilts to manage moisture, vented roofs for airflow, screened bottom boards for mite drop.
Operations build in Edmonton for local pickup or shipping across Canada and United States.
Customers include backyard beekeepers who manage colonies with minimal intervention. Hives support vertical honey access above the brood nest, small defendable entrances, single box size for brood and honey.
Components work with standard extractors and feeders. Dustin Bajer offers contract beekeeping at sites like Edmonton Valley Zoo and Northlands Youth Club.
Practices prioritize honeybee biology with narrow hives, natural ventilation, reduced winter movement.
