Welcome aboard
Sunday April 1st 2012This website has been a long time in the works, forged from every re-tweak I could think of and every unwanted delay known to man but finally, oh finally: we have launched! I could not be more excited to announce this and whatever you have in front of you, lift it up and speak your salute whatever it may be. Mine is S'lainte of course and what’s in front of me is lemonade, mostly.
Bookmark it up, there is much to do and I will write about all of it, right here.
Welcome aboard!

Hello.This post was extremely fascinating, especially because I was browsing for thoughts on this matter last Saturday.

As to the cost, I don't feel like we made a significant inmtsevent. The hive was fairly inexpensive to build, and the bees were free. they are pretty much no maintenance. If you only open the hive on warm days and don't disturb them much, we found we really didn't even need a bee suit. The two or three times we really wanted to do something with them, we borrowed a coat and hat from a friend who already had one. Langstroth hive are more expensive to get set up though, I imagine.

Nick,I just wanted to say that I relaly like the new iPad version of the site.. Nice job!! I'm new to beekeeping and I built my own octagonal top bar hives using inspiration from your site. I'm currently waiting for my package bees so I can get started but I have learned so much about bees and beekeeping here on PTheBeeSpace and I wanted to thank you! I became aware of the plight of the honeybee a few years ago and so I began paying attention to my local situation out of concern. I became increasingly alarmed because I rarely, if ever, saw honeybees around my garden. And so I began doing more and more research about Varroa mites, Tracheal mites, brood diseases and CCD, until I finally decided that the best option was to take matters into my own hands and put in a couple of top bar hives here at my home. I decided to try the octagonal hive because it seemed more natural (in all honesty.. I was going to try to build pdodecagonal hives but felt that it was beyond my woodworking skills) and I wanted to provide the girls as natural environment as I could while still being able to monitor the hive for trouble. So now my hives are built and I await my package bees (Italian/Carniolan cross) and I feel less overwhelmed because of your site and the eloquence of your explanations and observations. For that sir, I thank you and I look forward to more from TheBeeSpace!-Lindsay
