If you could have a wish list for the perfect training apiary, what would be on it?
Large space for hives
high fenced with gate access (secure)
hard standing for hives, (paved or concrete slab )
Easy maintainable surface between hives.
paths to hives
Secure storage cage for spare kit
CCTV
Away from hives:
seating area
car parking,
toilets
Indoor space
Storage for bee suits
OK, if we weren't in a built up area then maybe the security aspects could be less. And hardstanding for hives means less ongoing maintenance than grass.
Is there anything I've missed?
