UPDATE: All one-pound bottles are sold. There are only 8 8.75oz bottles left.

As you all know, it was a rough spring and summer for the girls, but they managed to produce enough extra spring honey for us to bottle a few frames’ worth! As you can see, supplies are very limited. One pound bottles are $18, 8.75 oz bottles are $12. As always, all profits go to charity, and shipping is available. 🐝💙🐝

Check out the difference in color between spring and fall honey!!! 🍯

“Why is that,” you ask?

It’s all about what’s blooming seasonally. In the spring, there’s a lot of clover, lavender, fruit trees, maple trees, raspberry and black berry bushes, dandelions, and black locust in bloom. It’s the light, floral, sweet spring honey that we’ve just harvested.

In the fall, it’s all about goldenrod, Japanese knotw**d (an invasive plant, but the bees love it), joe-pye w**d, and asters. These are the nectars that are starting to flow now and will be the basis of the darker colored, deeper, more amber tasting honey that we collect when we start to prep the hives for winter.

A Friend Writes to Say She's Thinking About Taking up Beekeeping

My first thought; it's expensive.
And heartbreaking, backbreaking -
you'll be forever tied
to their fierce, hardy delicacy,
their singular multitude.
Their sweet-sharp smell
will follow you around
like the muddy scent
of people who live with dogs.
You'll give over a piece of your brain
for honeybee worry. So much can go wrong.
You'll roll the queen between frames
without noticing, and the regicide
will end in revolt and mass migration.
Or perhaps the queen will be
by nature rageful, full of martial fervor,
and her brood will grow up to loathe you.
Worst of all, mites will nestle
in the cozy cells of the drones
to spread disease and famine:
winter will take your hive
and your grief will be surprisingly real.
Honey vapors will swim in your head,
propolis will speckle your clothing,
your cellphone will be sticky,
and you will learn the stages of stings.
But in winter you'll trudge through snow
to the hives on a warmish day and discover
a few carcasses of dead bees
the workers have dragged out,
and you'll knock twice on the sides
of the hive with a thick-mitten thud,
press your ear up against the wood
with your whole being aching
to hear the angry roiling buzz that means
they're alive and you can breathe.
They're alive and you can breathe.

Sometimes, as beekeepers, we have to do things that the bees don’t like because we know it’s in their best interests. Varroa mites are the leading cause of colony collapse disorder, and when you know even one of your hives has some, you need to treat the whole apiary. This time of year, we use gel packs of formic acid, a naturally occurring compound that already is present in honey! It’s very stinky, and the bees DO NOT LIKE IT, much like kids don’t exactly enjoy getting shots at the pediatrician’s office, but, just like those vaccines, it keeps them healthy in the long run. Amidala and Beyoncé took their hits like big girls. Cleopatra still must have enough Caillou bees left to act like petulant toddlers. 😂
