🐝This is a great way to see how your super is going with this observation window, as you know when your super is full and ready to harvest that capped cells.

🐝Great yr for a nectar flower this spring with plenty of rain and sunny days.

🐝I should get at least 8-9 kg of honey out of this minni super.

🐝Yummy! 😋

Happy Beekeeping! 😊🐝🌼🐝

Hello bee lovers! 🐝💛

I'm Hiba from Ballot-Flurin, a family-owned beekeeping company nestled in the French Pyrenees.

For over 40 years, our team has been developing a philosophy we call Apiculture Douce® (Gentle Beekeeping).

At the heart of our approach is a belief that guides everything we do: bees are not simply honey producers. They are living, sensitive beings with their own rhythms, intelligence and extraordinary social organization.

This philosophy has inspired us to rethink our relationship with bees.

🌿 We use wooden hives made from local materials, without glue or plastic.

🐝 We don't feed our colonies sugar, even organic sugar.

🌸 We prioritize gentle beekeeping practices, observation and respect for their natural cycles.

For us, beekeeping is not only about what bees can provide, but also about what we can learn from them.

I'm here to share our experience, discover different perspectives and connect with people who share our fascination for these extraordinary creatures.

Here's a question I'd love to ask this community: what's the most surprising thing you've ever observed about bee behavior? 🐝

Looking forward to reading your stories and observations!
