I've considered getting them for our hives, in part because we can also use them to control hive moisture in winter, but most beekeepers we've spoken to don't like the bee losses with them. I see yours has the wire mesh. Did you add that yourself?<br /><br />Either way, we have to hurry and decide how to feed our hives for Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32800870.post-61082728063947838342011-08-23T19:44:40.389-04:002011-08-23T19:44:40.389-04:00Randy, happy to see the bees are doing so well.

They must love it there. <br /><br />Tomatoes here have been coming on the past month but only enough to eat with our meals each evening until yesterday... our temps finally got to 92 and that helped with a 9 pound harvest. Our best performers have been Cherokee Purple followed by Ashleigh and all the rest are laboring this year. Maybe better next Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13160202493785166930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32800870.post-22184223576939662612011-08-22T23:51:27.101-04:002011-08-22T23:51:27.101-04:00How do you cook patty pan squash??

I have a friend who wants to raise bees but the native ones, so he is in a dilemma as most of the available for sale are the Australian species. Do you know how those in the wild can be attracted to a specific farm condition?
