Well, we opened the bee box! Chris had to add a second box to the "hive" because the colony is getting too big for just one. In the process, we got to sample some of the scrumptious, sweet honey! It was all very exciting!!
A guy I work with has been keeping bees for a few years. He came by to show us how it is all done and give us some pointers.
Obviously our little buzzers have been hard at work! It isn't time to harvest honey; we had to leave a lot of it for the bees. But we were able to have a taste!
This is such a fun hobby! Chris and I both really enjoy having the bees around. The sweet honey is just a bonus! We'll let you know when we have enough to go around!!
