We spent the Saturday before last at the shop
cutting...
bending...
and welding...
...the new stands for the hives to sit on.
The finished product.
Proof of their strength and sturdiness...
Then on Friday, we got them painted up.
In other news, three of our five hives that we wintered are healthy and active.
We also just finished sorting through about 50 boxes full of old brood frames. A surprisingly high amount were in decent condition. We're now in the process of painting and repairing.
Beekeeping time is coming up! We're scarcely a week away from when the bees arrive!
