Our food is in danger. One third of the human food supply depends on insect pollination and bees are responsible for about 80% of that. Imagine going for groceries only to find that 1/3 of the products that we eat every day have disappeared from the store shelves. What would you do?

We came to beekeeping with no preconceived notions about what to expect or how to do things. Before we knew it, we had a plan and had ordered our first bees. What we didn’t know was that we were doing something that can’t be done: we weren’t using standard hives, we didn’t have smokers and we weren’t giving our bees the standard treatment regimen of medications and chemicals.

Our primary focus is on the bees. They’re amazing creatures to watch and so fundamental to our food supply that we first got into this business just because we need the bees. In the course of doing their thing, the bees produce a number of things that have a variety of uses to us:

• Honey
  Honey is one of nature’s incredible treats. Unpasteurized, organic process honey is as close to perfection as one can get.

• Beeswax
  Beeswax is special stuff: all natural, non-toxic, non-polluting, non-allergenic, and with a delicious honey-sweet aroma. Whether it’s raw, unprocessed wax, blocks or candles, you can find it here.

We firmly believe that there are no secrets in beekeeping and that the future lies in more people getting into the field. We enjoy sharing what we know and all of our trials, tribulations and successes along the way.
