I was not overly optimistic about my honey harvest yield so I only bought one 12-pack box of pint size honey jars. I filled all 12 and had just enough left over to smother a poor biscuit to death. It ain't much but it is 12 pints more than I started with. Life is good!
Years ago, when I first learned to love honey, the wife began adding it to her cooking and even baking. At first, I was only using it in my coffee and on grapefruit, as I did as a child. We then began buying it by the case, in quarts. I imagine this local bee keeper, had many hives. But, you have a wonderful supply of honey to get you started in fall and winter.
When will the bees go inactive? Do they have a hard time with winters?
Jesus replaces the old covenant and speaks to the believer the moral code of God by His Spirit directly to the heart. He is the eternal, everlasting revelation of God to mankind. In Him is both the knowledge of righteousness and the power to live right.
Craig, the bees will stay in their hives when it stays consistently cool. I lost a hive last winter. Not sure what the issue was. They had plenty of food. They may have just froze to death. All I know is that I opened the hive on a warm winter day and the bottom was filled with dead bees. What was really strange was that it was my stronger hive. After talking with other beekeepers I learned that those things just happen.

I've heard that consuming honey produced locally can help people with pollen allergies. Any verification of that? or just an old wives tale?
The recipe is 1 tablespoon of local honey and one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar sutured into a half glass of very warm water.
Take once a day. And it works.
Good for digestion as well.
