Out hundreds of dollars, still no bees, no help
We have purchased twice from Brushy Mountain Bee Farm. The first time was two years ago. The weather here in Oregon was cool and rainy for nine days after the bees' arrival. On the 10th day, they all flew off. We did not complain, thinking that sometimes these things happen. When we bought from them this time, there was a storm coming, it had been in the news for days. Pick up day was the day of the storm, with high winds, cold and rain. We picked them up anyway, since the company said "pick up that day or lose your money." It was COLD, and rained for two weeks straight after the bees arrived. They all died. I e-mailed to complain, and reminded Brushy Mountain that accurate weather predictions are available for more than a month in advance. They should have rescheduled the date, and did not. When they finally called me, they claimed the storm just "rolled in" and that they had only 12 hours notice. Apparently they never listen to the news, or check weather predictions. We have spent hundreds of dollars with them, bee jackets, veils, tools, pollen patties and two packages of bees. Yet all they offered was to sell us a nuc for $90! And of course, since we have a top bar hive, there is no guarantee a nuc would even work. Not wanting to throw good money after bad, we declined. Then he said maybe they could come up with some bees for us, at "the end of the season." Right, when they don't have enough time to build comb and gather food before winter comes in. We were appalled at the lousy customer service, after spending so much money. They should survey everyone who picked up bees that stormy day in April. I would be surprised if even 50% of them survived. And if yours didn't, don't expect any help from this company!
