Stole this from another page. Very spot on👍
Until you have harvested honey you do not understand the hard work behind getting that liquid gold into a bottle and on shelves.

My happiest moments of being a decent beekeeper is when I see folks smile when they get a bottle of our honey. They just light up and it seems to make all of the hard, hot & sticky work seem just a bit worth it🐝🍯🍯

Many see a jar of honey and think it's just another product.. 🍯🐝

But very few people imagine what a beekeeper really goes through during a harvest.

There are days when it's so hot...
that suit seems to burn inside 🥵 🔥

Sweat runs non stop.
Legs are shaky from tiredness.
The lifts are getting heavier.
And there comes a moment where the body feels it can no longer go on.

There are crops where you literally want to pass out.

And yet...

The beekeeper is raising another high again.
It's reloading.
Re-enter among thousands of bees.

Because behind every drop of honey there are not just bees working...

👉 There is also human sacrifice.
👉 Extreme fatigue.
👉 Stings.
👉 Hours in the sun.
👉 And an effort that almost no one can imagine.

And maybe that's why only those who have worked with bees really understand the value of honey 🐝🍯✨

Because you don't just harvest honey...

You also harvest exhaustion, passion and love for this world that often few value 🔥

💬 Did you imagine all that a beekeeper can endure during a harvest?

Liquid Gold…Kimble County style

Did somebody say 🍯🍯🍯🍯

We did a preliminary run of only harvesting 9 frames. Yielded roughly 2.5 gallons. Moisture was at 16.6%👍 I really figured it was going to be higher due to all of the rain we have been getting. Guess the girls have been doing their job🐝👍 based on what I saw with some of the hives today…..I think we will have a good harvest in a few weeks🙏

We pride ourselves on a great quality product for our friends, family & customers. A high moisture content will ferment the honey. Bad news for us regular consumers great news for you folks that like mead.

This small batch will be for our family & close friends.

Y’all are just going to have to wait for the big harvest if we get one🐝🍯🤣🙏

God she must really love me😳🤷‍♂️🤣Big plans this weekend with the 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 will be pulling/replacing some frames if all goes well. So I needed both wax pots going so I wouldn’t run out while waxing up foundations.
