April is almost here! I am about one week away from obtaining my first package of honey bees. I hope the weather cooperates... Speaking of Sky Hive, I am happy to announce that the hive is completely painted and ready for bees! Abby did an amazing job. The thought of painting a hive seems easy, but actually doing it, is another story. It took a little over a month to complete, but the wait was totally worth it! Thanks again, Abby!
Below I am going to post a few pictures from the painting process. Leave some comments and tell me what you think!
