We are new (soon-to-be) beekeepers in Northern Maryland, near the Pennsylvania line.
While our ‘Bee Yard’ is still a work in progress, we do have our Flow Hive set up and are anxiously waiting for our package of bees to arrive within the next two weeks.
The top ‘brood box’ is on right now only to conceal/protect the pail feeder that we will be using once our bees arrive. The adjustable bungee cords on the sides are just an added measure to secure the roof.
Welcome @MarylandFlowHive - your boxes look very nice. Just curious, since it looks very woodsy where you are, do you ever see bear out there?
I’m in Southeastern PA, just north of Philly. Second year beekeeper with two nucs I just installed on Friday. I only have the one Flow super so I’ll be into some comb honey & other extraction methods too (hopefully!)
