@workerandhive in Calgary, AB!
Worker and Hive Bee Supply is dedicated to supporting beekeepers at every stage of their journey—from beginners starting their first hive to seasoned beekeepers managing multiple apiaries. They provide quality equipment, trusted treatments, and educational opportunities that help strengthen both beekeeping practices and pollinator health in their community.
They primarily serve beekeepers across Western Canada, although they also support customers nationwide via online shopping.
This fall, Worker and Hive Bee Supply is continuing to grow their educational programming with upcoming fall management courses and additional hands-on field days. The mentorship program is in the final stages of development, and they are excited to launch it for the upcoming season to better support beginner beekeepers through their first years.
They`ve also recently started a YouTube channel (link in bio!), where you will find educational content on beekeeping practices and management throughout the year.
Tom had the opportunity to facilitate a Formic Pro Educational Product Seminar at Worker and Hive Bee Supply in Calgary, Alberta, on August 9th.
We`d like to thank them for continuing to work with us, and if you are in their area, be sure to stop by their showroom for all your beekeeping supply needs! 🐝🍯

Back to the beginning...
Our story began in 1997, when Canadian beekeepers sought solutions to protect their hives and ensure the health of their honey bees.
The founders at NOD saw formic acid as the active ingredient most likely to be developed into a practical, sustainable miticide for the beekeeping industry. Properly formulated, it could control varroa and tracheal mites and potentially tropilaelaps mites while protecting the image of honey as a wholesome food and leaving no residue in the hive.
NOD Apiary Products Ltd. continues to aid the developing apiculture industry by producing all-natural and sustainable honey bee health products. Formic Pro is designed as formic acid polysaccharide gel strips, which, when placed in the brood chamber of a honey bee hive, act as an organic miticide that kills the varroa mite where it reproduces, under the brood cap.
