I am planning on putting several hives in a garden area....My main motivation is inproveing a garden output with honey and Bee's secondary. Im a little concerned about a neighbors back yard and his flooding leech field which is approx...60-70 feet away. My plan was to place a larger water source right next to the hives via bird bath or something similar. I also have a river that runs thru the back yard. Will the bees utilize these alternate water sources or do i have a big problem here? Thanks in advance.
