Hi Becky! I'm not too far from you either. Welcome! The family farm we'll be moving to used to be an apple orchard and many of the trees still remain. There is a beekeeper that brings his bees in over the spring and summer. They really go to town on the apple nectar. I love the fresh honey he gives the family. I definitely want to learn more about it.

Siobhan- Don't forget to count me in too! By the way, I'm heading your way to the yarn shop in the am! I got a new loom and want to get some inspiration.

Becky- You'll really like it here. The ladies are so nice. I look forward to getting to know you.

Smiles,
Angie

Welcome Becky from Rebecca! I live in Jackson about 15 miles from Pleasant Lake, in fact my brother used to live on Easton Road. I know you are going to love it here. My grand children are homeschooled. Maybe we could learn about your bees sometime? Welcome.

Welcome Becky! Wow...another Michigander. I think we have girls from MI joining almost daily here now! I'm from Battle Creek, not too far from you :) We had another farmgirl join us a couple weeks ago who keeps bees in K'zoo. She and I are going to talk about starting a chapter in this area.

HI Kris! I have four hives. It is so interesting watching the bee colony grow. They are really taking off this month we are adding second supers this weekend. If you want a great movie or book introducing the life of bees -"The Secret life of bees"by Sue Monk Kidd is what inspired my new hobby.
kristin sherrill Posted - Jul 24 2010 : 09:54:07 AM
Hi Becky. Welcome from Georgia. How many hives do you have? I was just at the farmer's market and found out someone out here near me has about 25 hives now. No wonder I haven't seen any here. They are all there.
