Approaching the Summer Solcstice 2025, Reflections.

As we begin hurricane season, we also mark the significance of the fast approaching the Summer Solctice,  June 22nd. Its a good time for a quick check in on the first half of the year.
So far we have restored and gotten back into production out chicken coop. Our small little flock of 60 are about 2 more months away from their egg laying stage. We're pretty excited to get our own fresh local eggs in the shop again soon.

In February we moved the apiary off the coop and relocated the hives to their 5th new home location on the farm. This new location is our favorite so far. I think they'll do their best in this location. Why so much moving around? Well in a few short years we've experienced, droughts, wax moth inundations, flooding, and accessibility issues. Moving them each time was not by choice but by necessity.

This season, we're switching from our traditional Langsworth boxes to Top bar boxes. We'll be writing a review at the end of this season on how they did with the change.

Swarm season is in full swing and hive removals are on demand. If you have a bee situation, please call us and we can help relocate them for you.

We got new trees in the ground this year: limes, soursops, guava, and bananas.

We welcomed 2 farm kittens into the farm family.
