Do they hold Renasance Festivals out by you? Mead--honey wine is big with the knights and fair ladies of the court. By us, a local homebrewer has gotten liscenced and runs the concession down in...
So--two years in storage--not so mead like taste. Used plenty of prickly pear fruit and quite a bit of honey. It worked real furious at start, moved to seconday and later to carboy to set. Just...
Hey: Try listing with the local fire station for swarms. They are glad to give your number to save the bees. After you have more than you want--just call and ask to be removed from the list. Or...
Thanks for your time OVI. I got five strong nucs from this gentleman beek. Interesting approach to group feeding. Prefers to feed away from the hive--reducing robbing. THNX

Where did you get plugs? I'd like a source if available..........
There is a total ban on anything honey---bee related in Austrailia. They just aren't willing to allow any trouble to arrive from out there..........very protective.
The other consideration is timing. If I was to get them now, I'd want to set them up in one of my boxes with frames etc. but what they've filled your box with probably wouldn't transfer--they need...
Say--have you thought of submitting some of your writtings to magazines?......Your ability seems clear. I was right there with you. As for better living thru chemistry---the available remedies have...

I did a cut-out under a trailerhouse last week. It had been delivered but the workmen couldn't hook up utilities because of the bees. I asked where it came from-----the family bought it used at a...
I get my glass jars at LA Honey Co. because there is no tax in Ca. I like the 16 oz. ovals but also use a 1 lb round jar with a wide mouth for spun honey.
Seems the mayonaise looking jar...
I've got the two pound oval glass jar of golden honey ready for the wedding. Looking for an informative bit about the term's history and use........honeymoon.
I've seen wikpedia--hoping for a...
I don't recognize the term surplus honey. Why not ferment it.........In tough times, being self-sufficient is best. Plenty of instructions available.simple equipment required. Great results.

What do you think? I can boil up twenty five pounds of sugar--$9.38 at the store and add to the barrel. I've got a yeast starter........hope they have enough energy. Guess I'm still looking for...
I recognize your foam boxes. You say the bees don't chew 'em up too bad? Those bees I got from you in Spring actually like my pasture of clovers and alfalfa. Our evening temps drop significantly...
I got this one from northern California winery---finally holding water. I have the biggest bubbler for the bung hole. I'd be glad to hear from any who can suggest a sugar/water ratio and the best...
Second year in a row--needed a few nucs to fill out my yard. Good quality bees/queens. Knowledgable, well mannered, organized, everyting you could hope for in a beek or a friend. Thnx Joseph.

Was walking the irrigation lines today--sunny and warm. I heard the most spring sound ever--bees all over the manzanita bushes. We've had some rain past few weeks and everything is taking full...

I don't have to use any incentive for my honey to crystalize. I get creamed honey inabout two weeks in the basement. Trouble is, the rest of the crop goes within a month or so. Maybe it's the...
My crop was considerably darker this year too. We haven't been getting the monsoon rains as heavy the past few years. Sure has been hot. I was thinking the major source for the bees might have...
Please let me know where to look for seeds.
thnx
A bill that would classify wild honeybees as a public nuisance created a little buzz in a House committee Wednesday when a lawmaker worried that beekeepers could get stung by the proposed law. The...
Who can say what any item is worth if you are counting in U.S. currency. If both parties are good to go......I'd call it mutually beneficial.
