Honey Harvest Day

Has this been the rainiest summer in Homer on record? There is no debate that this has been the worst honey year for the bees here at Greear Family Farm. Bees like to be warm. That didn't happen this summer. Bees like flowers with pollen. That didn't happen this summer.

Last year we gathered over 6 gallons of honey from one hive. This year with two hives we gathered less than one gallon. We'll have to think of other items to give as gifts this Christmas!
