Two years ago our wellie wearing family moved to the rolling wet hills of Mid Wales. We decided to grow our own fruit and veg, keep bees, poultry and build our own furniture with little or no experience.



This is our journey to the good life.

The Bee Shed

As is our nature - we like to have certain things dedicated to specific purposes so when we started the bee keeping the truly terrible realisation that we needed another shed for the bee-keeping equipment dawned up on us. Bearing in mind we seem to have spent half our lives since moving here knocking down and re-building sheds! So when a friend offered us an unwanted shed from his garden, who were we to turn up the offer?

We drove over, dismantled it and brought it home. We had decided where we wanted to put it next to a path against a fence but were disappointed to find it would not fit. Russ being practially-minded as he is though, he simply grabbed his circular saw and literally cut it in half length-wise. Still plenty of room for his supers, suits and other bee paraphanalia and now fit in nicely along the path!
