Hi everyone. I am interested in starting a small apiary on a bit of farmland. Trouble is, I live in the heart of the city. My backyard doesn't have the capacity or shade for more than a couple of hives.Is there anyone out there who has a bit of land they would like to have hives on? Maybe we could work out some sort of exchange for honey/beeswax, and of course, pollination! Or does anyone have any ideas on how to connect with potentially interested farmers?Please feel free to contact me via…See More

About me:
This is my second year as a beekeeper. I have 2 hives. One in the city, one in Los Ranchos. Finally feel like I'm getting out of the beginner stage. But when it comes to troubleshooting, I still have lots to learn. I adore the bees (as I'm sure all of us do here)!
I use the following type of bee hives:

My bee hives are primarily located here (ZIP code):
