Langstroth. Medium to start with. Will add the honey supers as the season progresses. I think we're getting Carnolian bees.

You'll have to keep us updated with that...I think everyone who has the opportunity should try to keep bees. We need more honey bees. If I were at a different place in my life I'd get more bees...it's a noble pursuit and yields so many benefits.

Are you going to plant any food sources for them or do you have plenty where you live?

We have about 10 fruit trees. Nice garden. Fair bit of agriculture around us. Lots of dandelions. A lot of our neighbors have fruit trees and bushes.

Hi dacs,
I'm riding the roller coaster of life as well. We finally left San Diego last July when a broken toilet line flooded the house. We were moved out by the insurance company.

Spent 6 months on a beautiful spot in the Ozarks living small town life. We tried to sell our home. Didnt happen fast enough.

Now were back in V. Every time I drive past PepperTree I think of you.

Good to hear your well. Congrats on the new grand baby.
