Top Bar Hive Accessories

Gold Star's Top Bar Hive accessories are a good choice for this green, low-impact system of beekeeping.  

Our Feeder kit is designed to fit securely into the Gold Star Top Bar Hive, so that you can feed your bees inside the hive (only when necessary, mind you!) when they are brand new to their home and working to get established.

Our Honey Harvest kit can be utilized by any beekeeper needing to harvest honey from natural wax comb using the "Crush and Strain" method of honey extraction.  It is an uncomplicated method of crushing the wax honeycomb containing the capped honey, and allowing gravity to do the work.  The bottom Collector bucket - where the strained honey is stored after being separated from the wax - comes complete with a nylon "gate" - for ease of bottling straight from the bucket.

Top Bar Hive Feeder

 
The Gold Star Top Bar Hive Feeder kit goes inside
our hive to give your bees easy access to food.
 
Feed your bees with our feeder kit accessed through the special follower board - while they're getting established in their new home.
 
Designed to match precisely to the sloped sides of the interior of the hive, the kit holds a wide-mouth Mason jar (incuded) securely in place.  
 
The long tray beneath means you can feed either liquid sugar syrup in the jar, (recipe included) or dry sugar.
