In the past 16-17 months, my Apiary has been hit with devastating losses. I have gone from managing 16 colonies, to now only have 3. With these losses, I have a plan on how I can grow my operation back, but it will require hours of work, and it might all just fail again. Watch this short video to see how my 3 survivors are doing, and listen to the pla I have set.
Also, if you have not done so, click that subscribe and follow along this season. I will show how I am growing from these 3 to over 20.
Thanks for watching. Like & Subscribe to follow the Journey,

Below are Links to some of the Equipment and Products that I use in the Apiary at Castle Hives. Look no further than Rob at Lorob Bees for your Vaporizer, amazing customer service and product. Suiting up for an Inspection, toss on an AWESOME vented jacket from Terry at Guardian Bee Apparel. Looking for a supplement, try Hive Alive. The number 1 rated supplement. Use code BRIAN10 to get 10% off HiveAlive supplement and HiveAlive fondant. Looking for an Insulated Hive, look no further than Apimaye.
