Making My First Pile Box Beehive for Japanese Bees

About Ryunohara: I'm Lee, I'm 31, Singaporean, and have been living in Japan for almost 10 years. I'm taking a leap into the countryside to run a farm and in the near future a farm-to-table cafe in Ryujinmura, Wakayama Prefecture. I'm experimenting with natural farming techniques and will be making tea this year. In the meantime the 2 properties on the farm need a lot of restoration work. One's at least 60 years old and has a leaky roof, and the other is 120-years-old with a good thatched roof but wonky floors. With the help of my friends I'm going to make this work somehow so subscribe to get updates about Ryunohara the natural farm every Wednesday. ryunohara.com

Bees need all the help they can get right now, I love it that you’re going to keep bees too. Can’t wait to see the bees making their home in it.☺️

Very good english. Have you tried checking out american bee hives. I would be interested to see how they work in your country, Japan. Thanks for sharing and showing us what, not only what you can do, but what your willing to do to help the Bees in the world. I'd say very good job.

nice job! greetings from Serbia! I am wondering one thing. How does winter, cold weather up to -10 -15 "C applies to this beehive please? I would like to try this method. Thanks in advance

Can Japanese honeybey be taken care of with ordinary methods as well? The traditional methods seem so much slower and labour intensive to be honest.
