future bee yard


Last Wednesday I visited Fertile Ground CSA to check out possible bee hive locations, and the trip was a success! We found a great spot to put the 2 hives that should keep them happy. Many thanks to Angie and Mark for allowing me to borrow some real estate for the bees.

big plans


After researching honeybees for approximately a year, and taking a course from the University of Guelph to see if I could handle working with them, I've decided to buy my first two nucs, or sets of bees. They'll be ready for me sometime after June 7, so in the meantime I'm getting my supplies and bee yard ready. No turning back now....
