Seaside Bees

I might try something like that for our coming dry summer!

Today I melted down some of our own beeswax and used it to coat the plastic frames before they go into the hives.
Adding a thin layer gives the bees a familiar starting point and encourages them to draw their comb in the right place.

Flowers are blooming and the bees are buzzing! It's not officially spring yet, but it is time to consider your own backyard hive. I have a few slots available for a consultation, assessment of your property and then we can discuss your own beehive and honey to come. PM me as the ideal time of year is upon us.
