Modified European Long Hive
Priced at $2249
Overview
This unique, Modified European Long Hive was designed from the traditional stackable box beehives, and the European long hive along with a few upgrades. We took the technology from Europe and the time proven traditional box hives and added a few "extra" features to make one of the most unique and sophisticated bee hives ever created. It has even been giving the nickname "The Taj Mahal of bee hives" by other beekeepers. This hive has everything from a front porch, to a mite screen, to having the ability to hold 2 separate hives under one roof, all the way from the brood box to the 2 Supers with vents. We also incorporated a design that allows an "up-draft" and insulation with bottom insulation as well for extreme cold winters. These hives also come with Grade A cedar singles to top it off.
