The late season splits are looking great

These are some of our splits we made a few weeks ago. I think we are going you need to winter them as a double deep after all.

Well, we didn’t have all the farm crew at the lake but we had most. These guys have been sweating their butts off and getting stuff done so decided to take em to the lake to show some appreciation. Thanks guys for all that you do.

Alaric demonstrating how gentle this new line of bees we are working with is…. They are puppy dog tame and it’s overcast and about to rain. I’m very impressed. Can’t do this with every hive on every day but this is what we are working towards. These suits get hot… I would love to be suit less. …. Ps this is also from treatment free stock 😉 more to come yall

Please sign this and share. If you want to help the bees 🐝 this is what’s going go help

American beekeepers are facing an unfair challenge.

Honey consumption in the U.S. is at an all-time high, yet American beekeepers now supply just 17% of the market, down from 80% forty years ago.

Adulterated imported honey is one of the reasons. It undercuts American beekeepers and erodes consumer confidence in what’s really in the jar.

Today, I’m asking our beekeeping community to stand together by signing a letter supporting stronger standards for honey.

Denis and Wilfredo are out adding supers in this crazy heat today. But fortunately the bees are loving it and working just as hard. Our northern MO bees actually make some honey from soybeans when the temps get this high. Not all soybeans in all areas make honey but boy when they do they can fill boxes fast. And as you can see even in this heat Denis is making jokes and just as excited as me 😆

Time to make some late summer splits

07/22/2026

Haven’t posted in awhile but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been doing anything. In fact it’s the opposite. We decided to split most of our hives that I call my i70 locations. Going to turn roughly 400 into 800. I have been fighting sickness but that hasn’t stopped my awesome crew from getting out in this heat and making it happen. I’m proud to have such a kickass team this summer.
