Bees are sooo important in the web of life - so you’re doing a wonderful thing. <br />That spot for the bench will be the perfect place to watch the comings and goings of the hives.

I am watching their add like a hawk now to see if they run the bee stuff on sale! We have one in Tyler which we go to fairly regular. They are carrying Langstroth style hives. I was excited to see this. They have pretty much everything one needs to get started, your basics...
