Description
The First Year Hive is designed for the first year beekeeper that is scheduled to get their bees early in the season. Normally, this is all the wood ware you will need for your first year of beekeeping. Two medium honey supers will, under normal circumstances, be your first year honey production. The hive body is made from Eastern White Pine from the New England area. Made in Toccoa, GA. Plywood is from Georgia grown pine.
You will receive the following items: (1) solid bottom board, (1) entrance reducer, (1) brood box, Brood box frames & foundation, (2) medium super, super frames & foundation, (1) inner cover, (1) telescopic cover.
All medium and deep hive bodies come with pre-drilled holes for the 6D nails. This greatly reduces the problem of splitting the wood body.
This comes assembled and unassembled.
You will need to paint the exterior of the hive to seal the wood for long lasting use.
