I’ve secured an out-yard location at the back of an alfalfa field about 1/4 mile walk from my house for 2011 and beyond.  The farmer lives closeby and leases the field to yet another farmer.  Neither felt keeping bees there would be a problem, and the owner had fond memories of his uncle keeping bees.  Always good to find an ally in a farmer.  I’ve also gained permission from all the neighbors to use backyards as a bit of an alley-way to make the walk, a crucial piece since the farmer did not want me walking even the edge of the alfalfa.  I’m really looking forward to having more hives at a more secluded spot.
