We currently maintain hives in seven locations in the Town of Washington. Each location has its own microclimate, soil and flora.
Macricostas Preserve
Wildflower wetlands with plenty of milkweed, a few catalpa trees and a bit of purple loosestrife.
Hidden Valley Preserve
Open meadows along the Shepaug River. Distinguished by catalpa, linden and black locust trees in the spring; lavender bushes, clover and wildflowers in the summer with a fall goldenrod bloom.
