Today I had my daughter and met some friends for a play date, after school we went to gymnastics twice (both kids had a session) and I had a volunteer mentoring session by phone this evening. Missed the apriary get together at 3pm – no chance when us is the exact same time I pick up from school and will miss the association one tomorrow too as I will be at…….ballet!<\/p>\n
When we ordered our hive I looked really hard into whether to treat it with preservative or not. We decided not to, ‘ it’s cedar!’ The message boards said, ‘it won’t need it!’. One said ‘ beehives, especially red cedar ones will last longer than the bee keeper and don’t need treating’. I wonder if that because most beekeepers are retired not trying to juggle work, two young kids, home and a beehive!<\/p>\n
That said perhaps it will wear me out and last longer than me anyway.<\/p>\n
You doing the same as me? Would love to hear from family beekeepers! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
