BS National Hive

*Due to environmental and sustainability considerations, our complete hives and hive parts are now fabricated from UK grown Western Red Cedar (Thuja Plicata). Not only is this source sustainable, but it also vastly decreases the carbon footprint incurred by importing foreign timber. Although the same species as its Pacific North West cousin, UK grown Western Red Cedar is paler in colour and does contain some knots. It does however offer the same durability when it comes to construction and weathering.
