Excited to share some extras...
Our Honeybees
Some years are better than others, as we have had as many as 6 hive, and sometimes only 2. Honeybees are such value to life.Beeswax
The honeybees role is not only pollination, and supply of mouthwatering honey, but beeswax! Beeswax use at our place is usually in the form of lip balm, salves, and candles.Swarm removal
Often time bees become a little confused, but when they swarm we alway offer them a safe place to live. Did you know honeybees are most docile when they swarm?Crazy Comb
This was a swarm that was excited and quick to start there new habitat, yet they were not quite in their permenant hive.
our new hobby, medicinal herbs
We love to cook with herbs, and the honeybees and hummingbirds love the flowers, but our new love is to gather them and make oils and tinctures.
You name it! we will try it once! (Then sometimes we do it all the time)
We are a busy family, and it is best when we all do it together. These are just some examples.
