Hi guys,
I'm keen to help bees and have the space for a hive (or two) but not fussed about collecting honey and I'm wondering if it's possible to just to have hives and leave the bees to it. I don't want to embark on something that needs all the kit but equally don't want to set the bees up to fail.
So, if I put in a couple of hives (I have an acre - part garden/part woodland) will bees just move in?
Can I adopt some bees?
Can I just let them do their thing?
Thanks.
Doug
