My name is Henk and I have had my apiary since 2012, and last year was the first time that I have lost all my hives. My interest of becoming a beekeeper was solely due to my extensive fear of bees or things that sting, and it continues to this day.
The loss of my apiary is unknown, and I have many theories. But, for the first time in 10 years I had to purchase new bees and have decided on Carolinas instead of Italians. I have read many theories and articles of the best practices for caring of bees and most seem to be subjective. Therefore, I decided to create this website for my own research and provide real-time analytics to support the theories of others and myself. For now, I’ll just post a blog while I gather the funds to upgrade this site and my apiaries.
