JHall said:Very interesting topic.. I am gald it started because I have been thinking about getting a hive or 2 for myself... Being an organic gardener, I was thinking of getting hives more for helping pollinate my garden and fruit trees more than anything... Although I do love honey, nothing like it as a final glaze for teh chicken after a few hours on the BBQ....
Check out setting up 'houses' for orchard or bumble bees if you are solely interested in pollination . ...something I plan on doing next year in Spring
