This is such a cool addition to the Beekeepers of the Northern Shenandoah BONS website!

Recently, we compiled a PowerPoint presentation sharing our experience with AŽ hives to our bee club and we are thrilled our webmaster has continued our advocacy!

If you want a closer interactive look at a Slovenian hive design, take a look!

There’s an old beekeeping saying: “A swarm in July ain’t worth a fly.”

At Rellik Hill Farm, we see it a little differently.

Sometimes the best moments on the farm are the ones you never see coming. 🌻
