This weather hasn’t been the greatest for the bees or for me getting any of my more important projects done. Got rained out again over the weekend so I grabbed some lumber and threw together a half dozen medium boxes to replace some old boxes and for the upcoming goldenrod flow. With 10 hives...

Well that blows, Sorry to hear you have my condolences. Was a good looking representative of the breed

I run a pellet stove as auxiliary heat as my home is all electric. I only run it when I’m home and never overnight. Cleaning is simple, every day before we light it we just vac out the ash and after every ton of pellets I give it a more thorough cleaning which takes about 20-30 minutes. That...

Goldenrod after the bees have cured the nectar. It’s also one of the worst while being cured.

Ben, here in my part of the world they don’t seem to browse the local blackberries until late spring/summer when they are fully leafed out and growing new growth. Even then they just seem to take a few bites and move on to something else. As far as varieties I couldn’t guess they’re just...
