A Different Harvest...

Honey!!!  
Our five hives of bees, bought in early spring have finally produced enough honey to harvest! My family is entirely addicted to local honey, especially the honey produced by our own bees. I love the taste as well as the fact that eating local honey has been proven to help with allergies...amazing.

honey frames collected this morning

wax and honey collected from one frame

one side of one frame...sealed by the bees

honey dripping from inside several of the cells


we were amazed by the white color of this wax and the gorgeous light amber color of the honey
