First Package of Bees

First Package of Bees

On Saturday, April 18,2009 I picked up my first package of bees.  I purchased them from Jones Bee Company in Salt Lake City, UT. Our five hour trip back to Teton Valley, Idaho was uneventful after the kids settled down and accepted the fact that the 10,000 bees in the car were not going to get loose. The plan was to arrive home by mid afternoon, but we did not arrive until 7 pm.

This is my first package of bees, waiting for their new beehive.

Top Bar Hive

This is my first top bar hive built in April 2009.
