What it is
Rossman Apiaries, LLC is a first-party U.S. manufacturer and online shop for beekeeping equipment, based in Moultrie, Georgia (with a second office in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina), whose official store (gabees.com) sells cypress hive bodies and supers, assembled/starter hives, hats and veils, feeders, and related hive supplies, plus 2026 package bees, NUCs, and Italian queens. Official About copy states that J. G. “Mr. Joe” Rossman began with bees in 1936, that the firm became Rossman Apiaries in 1952, and that it expanded into manufacturing and selling bee supplies in 1987 (cypress woodenware). This listing is for the hive/gear manufacturing shop with an official catalog URL, not a honey-only apiary and not a county club.
Who it’s for
Hobby through commercial beekeepers who want first-party cypress woodenware (10-frame commercial hive bodies and supers), assembled deluxe or starter hive kits, hats/veils, and feeders ordered from gabees.com — and buyers who also need 2026 package bees / queens / Moultrie-pickup NUCs from the same first-party shop. Volume or live-bee buyers who need quotes via the printed (800) 333-7677 line (Moultrie) or (336) 990-9273 (North Wilkesboro pickup). Not a membership club hall and not a university course.
Why it’s listed
This is a first-party Equipment operation with printed Moultrie and North Wilkesboro contact blocks and weekday hours, an official 3dcart catalog with on-page dollar prices for cypress hive bodies, hive kits, veils, and feeders, and a documented 1936 / 1952 / 1987 origin — not a scraped directory card, not Amazon, and not an affiliate storefront.
