BEEKEEPING IN THE NORTHEAST - An account of my beekeeping, not a treatise of expertise, but for friends & family who wish to keep bees vicariously through me, and for the occasional apiarist passer-by.

Base For A Beehive

This is a hive base my sister-in-law came up with that allows for flexibility in using a screened bottom board. Four paving stones on top of four cinder blocks allows you to pull out the middle paving stones to allow for extra ventilation during hot weather. The holes in the cinder blocks allow for extra security when strapping your hives down.
