Seasonal note for deliveries from late August

For orders with a delivery date from late August onwards, the amount of brood may be lower for seasonal reasons. At this time of year, colonies increasingly prepare for overwintering and naturally reduce their brood rearing. This is part of the bees' normal annual cycle and is not a quality defect.
