This project is about making Locally produced honey - I am aiming to establish 10-20 colonies around southwest London and Surrey. The honey produced will be pure raw honey, and the bees will help with pollination

Introduction of Colony 2

I introduced the second colony into the apiary today.  It was a little cold, so I didnt want to take the lid off for a photo session.  Hopefully later this week the weather will be a bit warmer and I will check up on the bees and how well they have stocked up on winter stores.
