I have a feeling that keeping bees is like raising chickens. You start out with a few birds and before you know it, you have dozens! But we chickeners overcome this problem with "Chicken Math" a.k.a. denial.π "No, I don't have 50 chickens, I only have 5, I don't know what your talking about I only see 5 chickens."π Same with bee hives, huh? π»π

The beautiful mysterious world of the bee surrounds your workshop. Always have such blessings.

Thank you Richard for your honesty. We are starting beekeeping this early spring and haven't harvested yet. We will make sure to choose a specific setting and design a system that works for us in the Southern California desert π
