Life has been moving fast lately, and somewhere along the way this page got a little quieter. But behind the scenes, we’ve been doing what we’ve always done—working bees, chasing blooms, and putting in the long days.

Sometimes the best moments happen when you slow down enough to notice them… like a bee with her full pollen pants.

We’re still here. Still working hard. Still grateful to do what we love. Thanks for sticking around while we’ve been busy.

As soon as we pulled up to this yard today we noticed this hive starting to swarm. So we waited, watched, and followed where they went which luckily wasn’t far, but it was very high up.

We don’t ever go and do swarm captures/removals when we get calls for them because we have a pretty packed schedule with our bees already, but since it was one of our hives and we saw where it went we figured we’d catch em.

We had no extra equipment on the truck other than boxes (which was convenient because there was no other way we would’ve ever been able to reach that high into that tree to get them) so we borrowed a lid from one of our other hives to use as a bottom board, shook the swarm in, swapped the bottom board out for two log rounds we found, and made a makeshift lid out of extra burlap we had in the tool boxes.

Ideal? No. But it got the bees situated enough and we’ll come back with the proper equipment and swap everything out.

Dusty’s Bees through the years 🍯🐝✨

Fun fact: When Dusty first started bees the business was actually called Buzzy Bees. Heather came along not too long after and encouraged the name change.

Why? Dusty works hard day in and day out. Always with the bees and when he’s not he’s researching, learning, and growing. Beekeeping is hard. And we would not be where we’re at without Dusty. That hard work deserves to be recognized 🫶🏻
