BEE REAL, FOR SURE; MAKE IT SNAP-PY; ENJOY(FUL) SOME CHOCOLATE
Due to the intense heat on the original date scheduled, our annual bee visit was postponed until a healthier temperature range was predicted. Thankfully, this Saturday seems to fill the bill: after the horrendous heat and humidity of the last few days, the forecast calls for partly cloudy conditions, with a high of around 80 degrees and lower humidity. Cross your fingers that the hive will arrive this week! "Beekeeper and market table honey … [Read more...]
