It has been a lovely summer and the last of the honey boxes are being taken off the hives at the moment ready for extraction. Unfortunately it was a bit too hot for the flowers and not a lot of nectar was produced. This was a very frustrating time for the bees who are healthy and on the look out for nectar for the hive. This has meant that again we don't have as much honey as we would like but we are able to offer Raw Clover in 500g, 1kg and 2.5kg buckets.

It has been hot work in the Apiaries. The last of the honey boxes are being taken off the hives and varroa treatments going in to get the mite numbers down so the bees don't have a problem over the winter. The bees are still quite active and trying to get the last bit of honey before it gets too cold.
Got this promotional email from Bee-R-Us yesterday.
