Bees, Apple trees and more
Bees and insects are such an important part of our food chain. After reading about the decline of the honey bees due to wide range use of pesticides we decided to help out and set up 2 hives in 2017. In 2018 we expanded to 4 hives. We have dozens of apple and fruit trees, wildflowers, clover, dandelions and many other perennials and annual flowers. We do not use pesticid

es or herbicides. After the bees fill enough frames of honey for their own use to survive the winter, we collect the surplus. Our bees are so focused on their business of collecting nectar and pollen we stand at the back of the hive in shorts and t-shirts to collect the honey. And they have been busy!!

Good morning, (natural deodorant recipe included) I answered a question on another site about deodorant and thought you all may learn from my answer also.

The store deodorants with aluminum clogs pores to stop stink, but is a catch 22 because the stink causing bacteria breed in the clogged pores. When switching to a natural deodorant it will take maybe 2 weeks to clear the pores and bacteria. You will still sweat but it shouldn't stink. I make our deodorant with a quart of rum, whiskey or alcohol (the alcohol smell dissipates when dry)with a tablespoon of arrowroot powder and any Essential oil scent you like, mix in a spray bottle and shake before each use. While your body is adjusting, just wash pits and respray as needed.

Ice storm 2026. More snow tonight and winds will mean more power lines down. We have tree damage and no grid power or cable internet. We're ready for a multi day outage though. Thanks to wood heat and the wind solar and gas generators. And we have lots of our food put away. The ice is beautiful but this weather is brutal. Stay safe and hang in there.
