I know it happens to every beekeeper, but that doesn’t lessen the blow when it happens to you. Rachael sent me a message that she has bad news. When she does this I tell her no thank you. Why on earth would I want bad news? If I have the choice to ignore her bad...

So there we sat with our not thirty pounds of honey. It seemed like it was so little honey that it wouldn’t be worth renting the honey extruding equipment from our local bee supply store, Bee Kind. Looking back, if I only had one solid frame of honey I would...

When Rachael and I started this adventure in beekeeping I was not really sure what to expect. Bees are pretty independent little critters, and don’t really need much human help. At first, I was in such a rush to get the bee gear, set up the hive and get to...

I know that every beekeeper goes through something like this, but it really doesn’t make it any easier. Fine, I will mark it as experience, but I don’t have like it. A few days ago Rachael went to feed both of our bee colonies, and check on how they were...

I am sad to report that there was no robbery. I was really hoping for one, but alas it was not meant to be. Rachael and I went into both boxes to see how our colonies were doing and if they had enough food for the winter. I was also really hoping to rob a bit of honey...
