Nanette has been fascinated with bees from an early age when she rescued a bee from her bedroom window, only to discover another bee and another, and still another upon coming back from releasing the first. Her family discovered that a swarm of bees had landed on their house in search of a new home. The swarm decided not to stay, but the wonder of the moment never left her. That memory eventually inspired her to become a beekeeper more than thirty years later. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/honeyflow/original/3X/c/f/cf767e22e26f7295c09f80487cff60321c5e0d3c.jpeg) ## See our revolutionary Flow Hive up close and personal At each event a range of Flow Hives were on display.
