The Keepers of the Bees

Urban farming in Tacoma: Kim and Ryan set up a honeybee hive yesterday. They were gifted some old equipment from her stepdad, Harold, so that's why there is duct tape on her hood. :) It was very exciting there for a few minutes.  They had bees all over them at one point, but not one sting. Today the bees are flying around orienting themselves.
Next up, chickens! Our neighbor, Jordan, is setting up a hen house and said we could put some chickens in there too. I am thinking of getting Barred Rock Chickens, the black and white speckled ones. This is a stock photo:
