If you are in Ohio, this is a good time to get your hummingbird feeders and your oriole feeders cleaned and set up. Hummingbird feeders should be filled with sugar water using only white sugar. 1 cup of sugar to 4 cups of water. As it warms up, it will ferment and be dangerous, so remember to clean and change them frequently. Orioles love grape jelly and oranges. Enjoy our feathered friends visiting this season!

We have eggs! Chickens are really working hard now. 12 large eggs are $5. We still have honey too at $10 per pound.

The bees were all doing cleansing flights and cleaning out the hives yesterday. We have 16 of the 20 hives we went into winter with. All the remaining gives look strong. The Next couple months can be the toughest depending on the weather. I will be keeping a close eye on them and hopefully get them all to the first pollen and nectar.

I was able check out the hives last Thursday. Temps in the 50s had the bees out flying. I added more sugar to the hives that were going through what I put on in December. The hives are looking pretty good. Still have 3+ months until first nectar and pollen. We have lots of honey still available! Let us know what you need.

Spent the day clearing invasive multiflora rose and grape vines from our property. The plan is to plant trees in place of the overgrown former pasture. Here are some white pine seedlings finally sprouting. I harvested them in the fall and cold stratified them for 2 months. I palnted them 2 weeks ago. We plan on planting a mix of conifer, hardwoods, and flowering trees.

We had to compete with hornets that were eating the ripe # ones on the ground, but we managed to get a few baskets of pears from our neighbor’s very full tree. We will let them ripen a bit more before canning them. Hopefully in the next couple of years, our pear trees will mature and we can harvest them.

They grow so quickly!

Still have too many vegetables to use up? Cut them up, put them on a roasting pan, spray with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Roast for 45 min at 375 degrees. Put in food processor and viola, you have pasta sauce. Use it for dinner and freeze the rest.
