Getting Started

We started out this year with just two hives from last year. All of a sudden, we have almost 14!

Do you get to pet the bees often? Who gets to wear that neat fencing outfit :) Where did the name "Bees Lees" come from?

I haven't actually met the bees, yet. But Hubby pets them about once a month while wearing the neat fencing outfit. "Lees" is the sediment remaining after the fermentation of alcoholic beverages, and we will be using the honey for mead, so it sort of works. And rhymes!
