| Beekeeping |
| Still Under Construction Please excuse our mess. |
| Beekeeping is a family tradition that I chose to carry on. Although my dad only had a few hives, he assisted my uncle on many occasions. My uncle had upwards of 500 hives in Upstate New York |
| This is a complete hive |
| This hive has had the top cover removed |
| The next step is to remove the inner cover. |
| This Hive has five of the ten frames removed. |
| The hive body has been removed here and the IPM bottom is shown. The IPM bottom helps control mites in the hive as they cannot reenter once they fall through |
| This is the frame the hive stands on. As you can see it has a landing board on the front so the bees have a bigger area in which to land. |
