The honey is spinning 😵‍💫 We need to extract some of our honey early in order to have more honey boxes to add to the hives which is a fantastic problem to have after several challenging years. Come visit us this Saturday if you want to see how it’s done 🐝🍯

“What is creamed honey? Here is the answer to the most frequent question we are asked. Come visit us today to pick up a jar 💙🐝🍯

What is Creamed Honey? 🍯✨
​If you’ve ever had liquid honey crystallize into a gritty, hard mess in your cupboard, you know how frustrating it can be. But what if you could control that crystallization to create something incredibly smooth, thick, and perfectly spreadable? Welcome to Creamed Honey (also known as whipped or spun honey)!
​Creamed honey isn't a chemical mix, and it doesn't contain any dairy. It is a 100% natural physical modification of pure honey. By guiding the natural crystallization process, we create billions of microscopic crystals instead of large, crunchy ones.
​How It’s Made (The Dyce Method):
​🌾 The "Seed" Introduction: We add a "seed" of previously finished, ultra-smooth creamed honey into liquid honey at a precise 1:10 ratio (10%).
​🌀 Slow, Gentle Mixing: The mixture is quietly churned at low speeds over a few days. This encourages the new crystals to copy the tiny, smooth pattern of the seed.
​🫙 Jarring: The smooth, velvety mixture is poured into jars while it’s still flowing.
​❄️ Cool Conditioning: The jars are stored at a cool temperature of 12–14°C (53–57°F) for a few weeks to set completely.
​The result? A rich, velvety honey spread that sits beautifully on toast, biscuits, or a spoon without ever dripping! 🍞🍯

One of the countless tasks as a beekeeper is keeping the bee yards mowed so the entrances are more accessible for the bees. It is also how you get covered in ticks and make millions of bees very angry all at the same time. Sorry girls- you will thank me later 😳💙🐝🍯

🌎Happy World Bee Day to the tiny winged workers who keep our gardens blooming, our fields growing, and our world buzzing with life.
🌸Every flower kissed by a bee is a small act of magic and today we get to celebrate these the quiet little caretakers of the earth. 🐝
Here’s 5 ways you can help the bees without being a beekeeper:
1. Plant native plants in your yard. Seek varieties that are nectar & pollen rich and bloom at different times.
2. Refrain from using pesticides in your
yard.
3. Make a drinking water station from a shallow dish filled with pebbles.
4. Dedicate a corner of your yard as pollinator sanctuary: leave some bare soil, don't rake the leaves, allow flowers to grow freely and don't cut all the dead stems in the fall. Wait to mow in spring so the bees can feed off early dandelions and clovers.
5. Be a voice for the pollinators. Educates and Encourage your friends, family and neighbors to do all of this too!
