Bees Part 2

Long live the QUEEN!

The story continues as we have completed hive

installation in both gardens...home and farm.

It is an interesting story, but here is the short version.

Catch me with a glass of wine and I'll lay out the

whole adventure.

We accidentally smashed the "cage" holding one of the

queens, thought we were sunk. Dr. Middlebrooks

(bee mentor) shows up to "hive the bees" and who is

hanging on to the outside of the bee package? Yep,

MIA QUEEN!

Great time learning about the bees. Read all you want, but

there is nothing like doing it yourself!

Here was our fun evening with Mentor Middlebrooks!

Dr.M is holding the "package" of 10K bees...

so calm! They were place into their new English

Garden Hive.

This is the Queen who never left!

The bees were thirsty and took sips

of our sweat...

Blessings from the Garden.
