The Bees Lived! Long live the Bees!

We were worried about the bees we just restocked in our four hives in our backyard, because we have had freezing 29degree weather and snow we had this week. Those poor bees, but they made it! Another year of honey!!!

Long live the bees!

Love bees! Dad ate the last honey we harvested in 1968 early in 2020.

  Ha, we have so much right now, we really don’t sell much just give away to friends and family and eat and cook with it a lot.

Keep up the good work!

Long live the bees. The Queen? Nah!

We need to save the bees because of the critical role they play in our ecosystem. There are many factors behind the loss of bees. Climate change, pesticide use, loss of habitat, pollution, and parasites and predators are among other reasons.
