My first attempt at Mead was a surprising success. The history of Mead goes way back, definitely a staple of the Vikings....and now I know why they were such fearless warriors. This formula has basically 3 lbs of wild honey, some orange peels, a few raisins and the rest water in a jug with a bit of yeast and "BAM!!"....you'll be paddling your long boat, bare chested up stream on the Great Miami river to sac Dayton. Got two more waiting to hit the year mark after this one. (Can't wait to try the Blood Mead) If you're looking to take a stab at brewing your own nectar of the Norse Gods we can supply the wild honey.

Going high tech. I decided to invest in an Infrared heat sensing camera. The glowing yellow is the combined body temperature of a cluster of bees in their winter lair. These are 3 hives we're keeping at the house this winter. If we have bees on your property look for a nocturnal visit some time soon. The advantage of the technology is we can detect proof of life without opening the box. We can then remove the dead bees and clean the boxes and be ready to put in new bees early in the spring. I find this stuff fascinating. Once I convinced Debbie of the other uses for this thing.....heat loss from the house....criminals and varmints hiding in the bushes etc, she was all for it.

We're offering Duncan Apiaries pure local honey in one gallon jugs for $42, which is $3.50 a pound. If you're interested in filling your own containers to place into a Christmas gift basket for friends or family this might be an option for you. If you live in the Miami Valley our bees likely have visited your flowers. We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas. Call or text to arrange for pickup or delivery. 937-654-2667

Closing out one of our best bee seasons by giving our bees a boost to their winter honey stores with some sugar as thanks for pollinating the Miami valley and giving us something sweet for our tea and biscuits. Also Debbie and I are so appreciative of our land owners, the Johnson's, Snider's, Maynard's and Miller's for allowing us to place our bees on a bit of their wild space. We couldn't do this without them.

Up at the crack of dawn with my lovely assistant feeding and treating our girls for mites. The mites are vectors for diseases/viruses and getting them as healthy as possible is crucial before they're cooped up for the long winter. Kinda like their version of our flu shot. What an amazing sunrise and beautiful day.
