PictureBee sets ready to go
We lost some of our colonies at the farm this winter so replaced them today with new sets brought up from Georgia.

It was quite the bee pick-up scene, cars lining a small country road, beekeepers of all shapes and sizes walking down the road clutching their wooden sets in arms, stray bees buzzing around them.  We took ours straight to their new hives and installed them next to the two hives that survived the winter.
