#GrowNostr Had a good day today, mounted foundation on frames for our three #bee swarm traps, found and prepped 2 locations about 10’ up along the South edge of our woods. (Thanks to my buddy for all his help!)
Folks at the local gas station said we need more natural #beekeeping in our area since they’ve noticed a marked decline. Will try to post some pics when I get them installed.

Might try horizontal hives… also, maybe stuff with raw wool instead of foam board if possible. If it gets really cold where you are, might also want much deeper frames.

You need to attach a LN wallet so I can zap you! The boy and I had fun wiring frames, even in the cold and rainy weather… ;-)

A suit that fits? The horizontal hives are neat, wish I could help more hands on with the builds, but as a trucker my time is very limited currently!
I think our group from the KC FreedomCell has built/is working on about 12 traps and 6-8 hives? We met up through Telegram back around election day in 2020, and a core of us have been on there or doing things together in person ever since. The traps are running about $75 and the hives a bit over $200.

#GrowNostr anyone else in #Missouri that is learning about or already into #NaturalBeekeeping ? Installing our first swarm traps on Friday in #HarrisonCountyMO
My buddy attended #DrLeo ‘s workshop and a group of us around the #KansasCity area have been collaborating on building DrLeo hives and traps!

Does anyone have suggestions for a Nostr client that doesn’t require Google Play Services? Amethyst says it is required on my new Pixel 6 running GrapheneOS.
New to FOSS, but trying as an old guy! LOL
