The Top Bar Hive, or Kenyian Hive, is a nest design that offers an efficient and sustainable alternative to modern models. Its horizontal structure not only mimics the natural habitat of bees (a hollow tree!) but also promotes more respectful and less invasive beekeeping practices.
Horizontal: Allows bees to build their comb in a horizontal arrangement, providing a larger and more comfortable space to work.
Natural: Handcrafted from chemical-free wood, ensuring a healthy environment for bee colonies. This artisanal approach ensures that each hive is specifically designed for you, adapting to your needs and preferences.
Simplicity: The top bar structure facilitates access to the combs, allowing beekeepers to perform their openings in a less invasive manner, which reduces stress on the bees.
Bee Calling: Our service includes the installation of the hive and a bee calling ritual.
Natural Behavior: By allowing bees to build their comb more freely, it fosters more natural behavior, which can result in healthier colonies.
Minimal Intervention: The Top Bar Hive is ideal for beekeepers seeking sustainable methods, like educed human intervention in the comb-building process.
Respect: With less manipulation and a design that respects their natural behavior, bees tend to be healthier, contributing to a longer lifespan for the colony.
