Just finished watching National Geographic's "Secrets of the Bees". What an amazing show! The cinematography and macrotography is top of the line! Even beeing elbows deep in the hives, you still don't see things near this clear and detailed! Highly recommended!!
It covers a lot of different bees, not just honeybees.

This is your reminder that even "weeds" have a purpose to something... One of the first nectar sources out there is the dandelions! Then comes the clover for a mid to late summer pop of color in the yard. The bees need all the nectar they can get to make that honey you love!!

I spent the last four days at the New York State Fair selling honey to support the Empire State Honey Producers Association, Inc of which I am the third Vice President. I don't have enough of my own to sell, but I know all the other players well!

WANTED: Taste Testers!

I have 6 samples of my first batch of Hot Honey ready to try! Who would like to stop by and try it? I need honest feedback, as I might be a bit biased! I think it is the perfect combination of sweet in the front and then heat in the back. Not to spicy, though I might do an even hotter one if there's demand! Let me know if you're interested in trying it!!

I've had a couple people asking if I carried buckwheat honey. I normally don't, but a beekeeper friend said he had some, so I picked up a small bucket of it for you guys to try! It has a very unique taste. Think honey and molasses! It's very dark, almost black. That's it on the left side compared to the spring honey. If you like dark chocolate or Guinness beer, I think you would appreciate this unique honey. I have a very limited quantity of 8oz jars available for $10 each. Let me know if you would like one!

Did you know that bees need water, just like every other living thing?! But they aren't using it to drink, well not all of it anyways. They are using it to cool down the hive! They are taking it back to their hive to store it in the honeycomb cells where it will evaporate and cool down the hive! They also have a bunch of bees at the hive entrance flapping their wings to pull out the humid air inside. Pretty neat huh??

It's getting there.... The zinnia and sunflower seeds are coming up pretty good!! I can't wait to see how they turn out!...

Trying to do another large pollinator project. The last one was a dud and disappointing after all the effort. We're trying a little bit different area that isn't as wet. I will (hopefully) have a red and yellow mix of sunflowers up by the road and then a long stretch of zinnias running back to the barn. Thank you to the nice lady from Alden that brought a few bags of the zinnia seed heads to my plant trade! The bees will love each and everyone!! :)
