Honeybees

Fantastic, SC & Bob. In my experience, beekeepers are a generous lot, like gardeners. We were given our first hive and colony, bought the second one for next to nothing and built 2 more hives to house swarms that we were taught to catch by other beekeepers. The most expensive items were the clothing (so we improvised) and a smoker. Also buying proper honey jars so that we could sell the honey. IIRC we used to get abut 60 pounds of honey from a hive each year so that's a lot of jars and labels. Plus the wax to make candles, polish etc. ..... and Bob can turn some Honey Dippers to sell with the honey..........and make model beehives to keep the honey jar in. I'll find mine and take a photo.                     

Sorry, I missed your book challenge. Do you have it now? Is it good?

Thank you veggie any advice you can give, would be greatly appreciated. Definitely would love to see photos   .
The idea of home turned dippers has already been mentioned by himself   . I like the model bee hives Idea for the jars. 

The book is very good. It’s quite amazing how few plants are actually good for honey.
You would of been proud of me, I found a discount code   .
