Freehive - Episode 11
After waiting almost a year to get all the documents in order, we finally started the renovation. We broke down lots and lots of walls and even a ceiling, discovering the natural materials used to build this amazing structure. Such an inspiration!

It was a season full of harvesting and processing fresh food straight from the garden — drying fruits and veggies, making juices to enjoy all year round, cooking up lots of marmalades, and even trying a little fermentation experiment.
