There is not a meeting tomorrow night – Instead we are having a field day on Saturday. I sent out an email, but apparently you didn’t get it. I will post all of the info on the website right now.

I am trying to select a site for my first hives. How far apart should the hives be? Is there a minimum distance?
Thanks,
Alan

We’re new to beekeeping, but we were told by ?? (can’t recall ) that it would be nice if the hives were spaced 6′ apart. So, this is what we’ve done…
However, it’s apparently not necessary as I’ve seen hives one right next to the other on the same long bench stand, pallet or blocks….
