It's that time again! We're entered into a few honey competitions at the Kentucky State Fair. If you get there Thursday, you'll see how we did before we do... Sunday is military appreciation day at the fair. The Green River Beekeepers Association is staffing the Kentucky State Beekeepers Association booth on the last Saturday of the fair. See ya there

Hey! New this year at MRF, a bigger jar of honey. Let us know if you want some because we sell by word-of-mouth. 🗣

Got the 'deposit' put into a hive over at Buddy's place. Also saved one of his colonies from falling over on an unstable base. I may have underestimated the size of the colony, they filled out 3 10 frame deep and immediately took to the 4th. And they don't like me because I changed out the bottom board and moved them one box at a time. I had to turn the dog loose because of the bees. Hell, they even went after the chickens. I think I got stung a half dozen times. I think I should've used smoke...

Dad dropped off a nuc as a 'deposit'. Time to set up their new hive.
