I
have
been
extracting
honey.
And working on the house...painting...
And doing a little bit of crocheting in the evenings...
some entertaining...
going to fairs and festivals...
and a whole lot of beekeeping.
My cousin Vickie has been helping me.
And I still can't keep up with it all!
I'm thinking about less hives for next year.
In the meantime.....
I found out that I can mail honey in a flat rate box from the post office for $12.35 shipping.
I charge $6.00 for a bottle of honey,
and I can get 14 bottles in one of these flat rate boxes.
or three quarts, ($18.00 quart)
or three quarts and four bottles!
Or many other variations of quarts and bottles.
If you are interested in buying some honey,
please e-mail me at

This honey is raw, unprocessed, and I don't use chemicals on my hives. Because it is raw and unprocessed, it will eventually crystalize. To get it back to a liquid state you put it in some warm water. Never microwave the plastic bottles.

I think I can also fit a bottle in a flat rate box for $5.85.
So shipping for one bottle is about the same as a bottle of honey.

I took this picture at the Indiana State Fair through some glass.
Can you find the Queen?
Her body is longer than the other bees...
and she's bigger.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on a great season with your bees. I am undergoing Venom immunotherapy, so no bees for me this year. But I'm using honey like gangbusters. I just posted a recipe (or two) on my beekeeping blog bbhb.blogspot.com. would love for you to drop by... and to win some honey, of course. ;)
ReplyDeleteHi Bee

You are a busy bee !:) But of course you are, and your honey harvest proves you and your bees are busy & productive.
ReplyDeleteWe love to read about other bee-keepers managing their bees , making sweet honey to share with so many !
