New bee hive





Here are some pictures of my younger brother(14) installing our new bee colony a couple days ago. We had purchased the hive box and all the supplies about a month ago and were waiting for the bees to arrive. They should be very useful for pollinating all the tomatoes, peppers, melons, squash, etc. We also hope to get a small amount of honey by the end of the season too. Its important when working around bees to move very slowly and calmly and not agitate them.
