Educational Hive

The WNYHP, Inc. (our club) is the proud owner of a Brushy Mountain educational hive. For those of you who have never seen one, it is a “bee-free” replica of what an actual hive body would look like. All of the comb, queen, worker bees, brood, honey, etc. is shown on the frames in realistic picture form. This educational hive is available for ANY WNYHPI MEMBER (paid current in dues) to use for purposes such as speaking engagements, presentations, and other functions.

For inquiries on using the hive for demonstrations and events, contact Doug Ford at president@wnyhpi.org.
