Description
This group is intended for all those interested in bee-friendly, sustainable beekeeping
based on the hive of Abbé Emile Warré (?-1951) and described in the book Beekeeping For
All (http://www.mygarden.me.uk/beekeeping_for_all.pdf).
It will include the various modifications of that hive introduced by, for example, J-M,
Frèrès & J-C Guillaume, Marc Gatineau, Roger Delon etc. It will also include the
almost identical beekeeping concept developed by Abbé Christ (1739-1813) and resurrected
by Johannes Thür in his book Bienenzucht. Naturgerecht einfach und erfolgsicher (Wien,
Gerasdorf, Kapellerfeld, 2nd ed., 1946), two parts of which are available in English at http://www.mygarden.me.uk/thur.pdf.
Links to Warré beekeeping sites in English, French and German can be found at http://warre.biobees.com/index.html, together with a beginner's guide and details of modifications and historical precursors of the Warré hive.

Bernhard wrote: "Here every natural apiary is in danger to get destroyed by public madness." I'm surprised at the cultural difference between there and here.

Re: Octagon hives
Hi Bernhard- I am totally with you on this. I gave this a great deal of thought last summer. I went so far as to retrieve a few sections of log that were
