Greatest part is that the bees do the vast majority of the work, leaving me to do other things.
The bees have even provided a certain security role, as some boys that used to trespass on the backside of a hill behind my home are now reluctant to do so because they are unsure whether or not the bees will attack. :)
We are still in the discussion stages on this, but I doubt that we will do it. We keep several jars in stock, including raw honey from the farmers market.
Hubby is going to till me another garden in a few weeks, once our baby girl gets here and I can move a bit more freely! I’m planting red winter wheat in it. I already have the seed. My project next spring? Beekeeping. I’ve found our local beekeeper’s society and I plan on contacting them in January. My DH just rolls his eyes, but he knows that all my little “projects” like this have so far paid off!
