Bee populations are struggling and this genius design hopes to help solve that problem and bring bees into the tiniest spaces. All you need is about 2 feet x 2 feet and some spare cash and you’ve got yourself a beehive.
As you’ll see in the video (worth watching), the design means you won’t need any special gear to handle the hive and harvest honey, and it appears safe for kids, too.
This is an Indiegogo project that has already raised three times the money they needed.
So, who provides the bee colony? Maybe they just magically appear one day?
I would so want to get one of these. If only we weren’t in an apartment that has neither balcony nor yard access.
Beekeeping by non-beekeepers (i.e people that do not know how to assess and take care of bees) creates potential “Varroa bombs” with infected colonies that hurt all colonies in a 3 mile radius … This has nothing to do about “helping the bees” but everything about “making money.”
