October 2022 Update - One Unfortunate Event
The view from the back of a police car pretty much never means good news. In the ambulance in front my wife is receiving treatment on two shattered wrists after a very hard fall while we took "a quick hike before dinner." We were miles from the car, but thankfully along an easy to find road.
We did the full show: 911 call, ambulance ride to an emergency room with a 4-hour surgery featuring the full Home Depot catalog installed in each wrist... and once the initial panic ended, reality started to set in for what this injury would mean for our autumn plans.

2022 Spring Harvest
Honey harvest, extraction and packaging is complete for Spring 2022. It's a huge effort and a happy announcement to make! Now there's just one hurdle... Selling it all.
Hopefully, some of you out there are hungry for good local honey!
However, as of this date, we do not have any sales events/festivals/fairs/etc. planned or booked. It's been a summer of transition for us, so click through for the low-down:Tuesday, April 26, 2022

Long Live the Queen (but replace everyone else)
Looks like we've officially made it through the last of winter. I've taken the snow tires off, bought gas for the lawnmower and the awning company should be out to shade our deck again any day now. For the bees, transitioning from winter to spring is arguably the hardest thing they ever do.
