"Do you know that...
Old bees do not return to the hive in the evening? Instead, they spend the night on flowers, and if they live to see another sunrise, they resume their activity by bringing pollen or nectar to the colony. They do this sensing that their end is near, as no bee waits to die in the hive so as not to burden the others. ๐๐๐
Bees, like all insects, are cold-blooded, yet at the colony level, they function as a warm, mega-organism. ๐๐๐
There are bees that bring pollen and bees that bring nectar; a pollen-collecting bee will never switch its task to bring nectar, and vice versa. ๐๐๐
Although dandelions are yellow, their pollen, when mixed with nectar by bees, turns orange in the mixing urn. ๐๐๐
The record for keeping a bee colony alive during winter without cleansing flights is 356 days. ๐๐๐
Bees can be useful to humans even after they have died, as their bodies are used in poultices to treat joint pain. ๐๐๐Thank you, little bees!!! ๐โค"
Clover is one of the first flowers worked by the bees in the Spring. Clover honey ๐ฏ is light in color & texture, very sweet & oh so yummy ๐ ๐๐ฏ๐
This is too cool. I donโt think Iโd relocate them. ๐๐
I am still collecting swarms but no longer do structure removals. This link can help you find keepers who can help get bees out of homes & barns

Iโve bottled a small batch of honey ๐ฏ. Itโs in the honey box. If the โHoney for Saleโ sign is still at the road, itโll be available for sale. $8 for a pound squeeze bottle. Leave your ๐ต, take my ๐ฏ ๐ THANK YOU
I checked on the girls ๐ Monday & they are ramping up production of honey ๐ฏ. But, harvesting doesnโt look like itโll be here any sooner than mid June. Iโll keep you updated.
Sorry but the honey crop will be later than usual. Last month with the 29 degree snap, all the citrus flowers & the tallow froze. The harvest may not happen until mid to late June. This cool snap isnโt helping either. ๐ฏ๐๐ญ

(Post from a relieved Mom) HONEY to the rescue. GEAUX HONEY ๐ฏ
For dinner we ordered food from Cracker Barrel. We got a family dinner that came with biscuits with butter and little honey packets. Right after dinner we sat in the living room. Maggie comes over to me and points at her mouth and says. "I just swallowed that."
"Just swallowed what?" I asked.
"That shiny thing." , she says.
So I look around for what she could be talking about and I see a barbie doll on the table. Levi is sitting there too. His eyes get big and he says. "I just took one of those out."
What he's talking about it a little button battery that was in the dolls leg. The cover to it had come off. I know immediately that this is bad.
We start getting ready to go to the hospital. While I'm doing that, Eva is on her phone looking things up. "Mom it says to give her honey. "
We still have little packets of honey just sitting on the table. How amazing is that? It was surley God's kindness to us! So we give her a couple of packets. And grab the rest for the ride to the hospital. I give her more in the car.
When they x-rayed her, sure enough there is a battery but it has slid right down to her stomach where it is less dangerous. They kept her overnight with plans to possibly retrieve the battery in the morning. But first thing they did another xray and the battery was sliding down again into her intestines. So at that point ther is very little risk. Maggie was discharged right after breakfast.
I was not planning to share this on Facebook. But multiple times the doctors told us how good it was that we gave her that honey right away. Because it coats the battery and keeps it from getting stuck. And I just felt I needed to share how truly and awesomely God was looking after this little girl last night.
"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, โMy refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.โ
Psalm 91:1โญ-โฌ2
Edit: I had no idea this post would reach so many people, but I'm glad it's helping to get the word out. And grarful for all the support amd prayers.
I was contacted by a couple sweet moms who lost their children to battery ingestion. They are so amazing to experience such a loss and want to help others through their experience. I want to link to their websites for more information .

June 23rd is Midsummer Night's Eve, also called St. John's Eve. St. John is the patron saint of beekeepers. It's a time when the hives are full of honey. The full moon that occurs this month was called the Mead Moon, because honey was fermented to make mead, and that's where the word "honeymoon" comes from. It is a time for lovers. An old Swedish proverb says, "Midsummer Night is not long but it sets many cradles rocking."
Finally, we have ๐ฏ honey. I bottled a few for those who just canโt wait a minute longer. ๐
Iโll bee extracting all day so I should have much more by tomorrow. Prices remain the same, 16 oz $8 & honey bear $6.
Bottles are in the honey box. As always, we appreciate your business. ๐
