Just wondering if anyone keeps bees. I started last year with two hives. I got about 10 gallons of honey last year. Things were looking good for both hives until we got a late March storm that blew the lid off of one of the hives. It never recovered so I'll have to get more bees for that one this spring. I also picked up another hive this year at an auction. So if all goes well I'll have 3 hives going.
The hive that made it through the winter came on strong. I pulled about 8 gallons off in August and I suspect I have at least another 8 gallons out there now.
Very fun hobby and the honey is fantastic.
