We finished putting up our swarm boxes just in time to catch a swarm! We caught our first swarm of honeybees for 2024 on Easter Sunday. We were lucky enough to be at home when they moved in and were able to shoot this video.

We are practicing natural beekeeping methods using Layens horizontal hives that we built ourselves. To get a copy of the plans that we downloaded for free and used to build our swarm boxes, frames, horizontal hives and insulated horizontal hives, click here: https://horizontalhive.com/
