I hope everyone is gearing up for <drumroll please> SWARM SEASON!!! Yes, that means SPRING! I feel very lucky this year, as I have only lost 2 out of 5 hives! Less than 50%, which means I beat the odds. In checking our hives more and more, comes stings, so I thought I would share these poor babies suffering the effects of our little ladies! Have a good laugh or many 😁 

Communication amongst honey bees can be super cool! Check out this video by GA Tech titled “The Waggle Dance“! It explains a lot of variations of movements that the honeybees do everyday!

So today I tried my hands at rendering the raw beeswax from the cappings I collected from my last extraction!
