Welcome

Welcome to my first experiment in keeping and maintaining chemical free, healthy bees. Please note that I am not a cabinet maker or bee biologist. Just some guy keeping bees in a box in the yard. This is an ongoing learning experience, all comments are welcome.

Inside the hive


For those unfamiliar with top bar hives, this pic shows where the bees build their home. The bars on top of the box are where they build comb and each end is enclosed with a moveable follower board. More top bars are added as additional space is needed. This hive has entrance holes drilled in the side.
