Together, let’s “Expand the Hive”!

“Swarming” represents the mechanism by which a hive grows and expands. This is preceded by worker bees preparing a series of “queen cups” where eggs for new queens are placed and sealed inside.

Just before a new queen emerges from one of the sealed queen cups, a portion of the hive will swarm to a new location with the new queen, thus multiplying the geographic and numeric size of the hive.

I have created this “Expand the Hive” community as a place where ideas to expand the overall Hive community can be planted, nourished, & pruned.

In the coming days, I will be posting some of my own ideas and I welcome others to do the same, so that we can constructively criticize and expand upon each other’s thoughts.

Let’s all be worker bees!
