New FH2+ in The Dandenongs

Excited to be joining the beekeeping and flow community :slight_smile: Representing the Dandenongs in Victoria!

After spending the week building my FH2+ and preparing their new home I was super excited to have the hive filled with bees today. I have a 30 degree slope in my yard so decided to put some pavers down to make it more stable and fit nicely into the scenery.

Really nice looks great and what a view.
You may well have already thought about it but can I suggest you make a similar paved area a metre away for when your super is installed for placing a stand or blocks to assist with inspections. It also gives you the ready made location for a split come swarm season.
Good luck.

That’s a great idea, something I hadn’t thought about. Thanks for the advice!

I’m already looking forward to dragging more bluestone pavers all the way up the hill :wink:
