Still in your yard? Do your neighbors complain?
I so want to set up a box, but the "good" spots in my yard are along block walls that have a neighbors' (plural) back door on the opposite side. Not sure if I want them too close to the chicken coop either, I figure one or the other won't be there after a summer of encounters. |
We have about 2 1/2 acres between each house, I still decided to pop on over to make sure it was OK to start just in case someone was allergic. Once I got up to nine hives, I noticed that both neighbors have extensive gardens and I get produce a plenty on a regular basis.
Blueberries just wrapped up here
Corn is still growing
Deer freak has a bunch of clover growing
And all the squirrels are in their yards LOL! |
Sounds like a great hobby. There's a small outfit in my town which has placed hives all over the city in abandoned lots.
One day perhaps I'll move into some land and do the same.
