RE: Natural Beekeeping | Intro to Catching Wild Swarms (Vlog)

in #vlog6 years ago

Love it! The slow and organic method for sure leaves room for the ever present unknown beauty everywhere. Happy to hear you'll be learning from @bushkill, mentors are solo crucial, especially with bees. Hope to see you with some swarms boxes soon @senorcoconut ;).

I was sitting with the box on our land and saw a few dozen bees checking it out, so it looks promising.

P.s. we didn't follow the plans exactly as we couldn't get cedar wide enough to use solid pieces. We had to do the extra labor of cutting many lap joints.

Sort:  

I like that you guys aren't affraid of a little customizing when you don't have all the parts of a plan! Than again, with what you've gone through to get where you are in your homesteading journey, there probably isn't very much you are afraid of. 😎

@Bushkill mentioned a free class he gives at a library near by... so he doesn't know about being my mentor just yet, but I'm sure by now his ears are buzzing, we've mentioned him 3 times on this thread!!! See you in the next couple months @Bushkill...😁 (and there's the 4th time!)

If by next spring I haven't built a swarm box, I'm excpecting you to put a fire under me @mountainjewel....

Thanks
