All counties in New Mexico offer an agricultural exemption for land owners who place bee colonies on their properties for the production of bee products (listed as honey in the state tax codes).

We are assisting land owners to help them meet the requirements for each county to qualify for an agricultural exemption.  This includes selling beehives, providing colony management and offering hands on training. 

We are including documents from the New Mexico Tax Assessors office as links in the right hand column under New.  Click on a link to take you to a form or a link.

New Mexico stipulates that the first 1/2 acre with home does not qualify for the exemption, but the balance of the land does.  One woman in Corrales, NM who has purchased our bees and will have us manage them for her will receive a property tax savings of almost $3,000 per acre on 3 acres.  If you would like more information on agricultural exemptions in your county please email us at:  ed@nmhoney.com and tell us which county and state you live in. 

Nucs from Florida:  We are making a special trip to Florida to bring back a load of Nucs (5 frame hives) to overwinter in Las Cruces.  If you would like to be a part of this order please contact us immediately by email.  (click here for email)  We will send you information on prices and delivery.

Nucs with queens:  We have Italian, Cordovan and Carniolan.  All three lines are bred for the hygenic nature.   We have at the request of beekeepers in colder climates a Carniolan cross. These Carniolan breeders are mated in an isolated area and observed for a year prior to use in the breeding program. The Carniolan virgins are mated with Italian drones, resulting in an excellent mix of both Italian and Carniolan traits which many customers prefer. Click here to go to the page on purchasing bees.
