To Bee or not to bee?
To take honey, or leave the honey?
To split the hive, or don't split the hive?
To feed them sugar water, or don't feed them sugar water?
Just a few questions to ask when you have bee hives.
Unfortunaltely our bees did not produce enough honey this year that we wanted to take their honey.
Greedy human beeings that we are. We refrained!
Sad for us! Hopefully this will ensure the hives make it through the winter.
It is so sad to have these beautiful, healthy hives, be dead in the spring.
So, no new honey this year!
One of our favorite things to grow in the garden is "big" pumpkins. If we water them well they can grow over a hundred pounds. These pumpkins were about 60 pounds before Kevin used his knife and did a little magic cutting on them. We always keep one for our front porch and then share the others with someone else. As you can see....It was raining for Halloween this year. But Kevin still cut them up.
