Bird's Eye View of Chicago Honey Co-op

Courtesy of Google, a satellite shot of our apiary. Notice the extent of the community farm to the left of the concrete. We opened the space up to neighbors and friends for growing food. Our Friends at the North Lawndale Greening Committee help to manage the growing space . 

For reference - the concrete squares are 20 feet by 20 feet. The image was most likely taken any time from late June to mid August 2010.

Wow. That is one big apiary, that means thousands of honey jars and wax too. You are indeed successful in this field. More success to you guys! Good luck!

Thanks for the good wishes, HowtoBeekeep. Actually, in beekeeping terms our number of hives is pretty small.

WOW that is truelly a sight, having had the opportunity to volunteer there this past spring was amazing, but to see it all is great!

What a great shot! It looks so neat from above (I'm sure it's neat down below too!)
