Just one final question... is the approach to MQTT correct or should I stick with simple Ethernet? I was planning on using OpenHab or Home Assistant.
Thank You all

Hi.
oki, in case i'll add some explanation.. I'll be busy for this week but you can simply use the serial gw example from MySensors for getting started, this should work. I didn't need to create a special board in arduino for this board, so if you're using it, you'll need to install&use the mattairtech SAMD21 board definition for the pin mapping.

Hey! This looks like a great project! I'm considering building one for my hives.
I notice that the legs need to be welded. That will be a chore for people that want to make this build themselves.
Is this version designed to be built by anyone?
Did you consider using open source or standardized hardware? Think of 2020 alu profiles or something, to allow reasonable buildability for users other than beep-base-shop.
Also let me know if I misjudged, and that all components could be simply bought online.
Stay awesome!

There are also other solutions that have I2C bus pins on the shield and if you are going to make a battery powered node, I'd suggest to use an I2C sensor as it will be much more battery friendly
