Spring is wrapping up and we have been just as busy as the bees!!!!
While managing honeybee colonies on our locations for agricultural valuation for property owners, we are also mentoring and teaching classes at Owenwood Farm and Neighbor Space – with big thanks to Grow North Texas. ( www.BohemianUtopia.com/classes/ )
The spring season has included waxing frames, giving the colonies more space and adding boxes, preventative measures from unwanted pests, splitting the colonies to prevent swarming, and so much more!
Our spring honey harvest should start in about a month and it looks like this season will be a much smaller harvest than in years past.
We had a short nectar flow in March, and it’s been slim pickins’ for the bees since then – so we are going into summer feeding most hives
While maintaining colonies, we are starting to work on creating our own homemade salves, tinctures, and infused herbal oils.
We look forward to sharing our crafty goodies with you and keep you updated on their availability.
