The octagonal hive is a refuge hive where we do not collect the honey, it is a hive of biodiversity and preservation of bees.
You can find out more on our website: petitesruches....
And you can buy octagonal refuge hives at the Fabrique Pluriel: lafabriqueplur...
In March the colony already finds a lot of flowers: snowdrops, lungwort, boxwood, cornus mas, lonicera fragrantissima, elm, willow, blackthorn, ... which allow them to bring back coloured balls of pollen, as well as nectar. The queen has started to lay eggs.
Let us observe the interior, the beautiful natural cakes. Let's also look at the eco-planter, a terrarium-composting facility at the bottom of the hive.
The colony is well underway! Let's start!
