I am going to be building a compost heated greenhouse soon up here in northern Canada (zone 1b/2a) and am considering building a bee hive into the wall in such a way that i could access it from both outside and inside. I have never kept bees before and still have much reading to do so please forgive and correct any mistakes. The idea behind the integrated beehive is that in the winter they will have access to fresh water and flowers from my aquaponics system and I would hope that they will also enjoy the warmth instead of having to try and survive our nasty winters wrapped up in plastic. I also hope that being that close to the house and my great danes would be a bear deterrent - they are horrible up here for destroying hives. Thoughts? Anyone tried this before?
