Leafcutter Bees
Gentle Pollinators for Your Summer Garden
Leafcutter bees are gentle, effective pollinators that boost harvests in gardens and farms, buzzing past berries, tomatoes, peppers, squash, beans, and peas. Unlike Honey bees, they don't defend a colony and rarely sting, making them safe for families and pets.
Shop everything you need to raise them, from starter kits and Leafcutter bee cocoons to natural reeds, reusable nesting trays, and tools for incubating, observing, and protecting your bees.
For the health of the bees, we only ship Leafcutter bee cocoons on Mondays (May to August) to avoid transit delays over the weekend. Choose the Monday your bees leave our warehouse to align with when your garden reaches consistent daytime temps of at least 75°F.
