LOG HIVES
OUR STORY
Boomtreebees makes handmade log hives and our main aim is to help
with the conservation and rewilding of the native honeybee, providing
hives that mimic natural habitats of honeybees. We want to help teach
more about the importance of the honeybee in our environment whilst
also actively participating in the collection of data to better understand
free living colonies.
