I love a good "Barder". Good an insider connection with a flock of lovely ladies that accepts my golden nectar in return. Turned these farm fresh goodies into shakshuka which is a favorite Sunday night dinner.

Tonight's feast, venison backstraps garnished with homemade chimichuri and side of homegrown potatoes smothered in garlic. All ingredients sourced by the labor of my own hands.

My favorite way to take down comb honey. Simple but good crackers with an aged cheddar topped with a little slice of honey... oh me, oh my

Had a friend snap and unplanned shot at I was preparing for a late season class on winterizing colonies in the student apiary. We checked all our colonies, reduced entrance sizes, and sealed any cracks we found prior to feeding another round of syrup

We got all the goodness right now. Multiple kinds and sizes ready to dazzle your taste buds. The nearby forage creates a unique flavor for each apiary.
Tosa Gold has an incredibly floral vibe from all the wildflowers and basswood trees nearby.
Lapham Red is has a more earthy profile given it's proximity to the park it's named after.
Comb honey will rocket you into another dimension (legally) also from the southern Kettle Moraine.

Combhoney is $18 for a 4x4 square weighing 12+ oz
1lb squeeze bottle are $12
24 oz squeeze bottles are $15
48 oz jars are $27.

I offer a porch pickup in East Tosa or you can get delivery from my friends in the MKE Metro area.

Cash is queen in this hive, but we like Venmo and PayPal as well.

Completed my final inspections of the year this weekend. One last check to make sure each colony is queen right and have enough resources to make it through the winter. One more round of feeding next weekend and they should be all set. Also got a batch of comb honey packaged and ready to go. This is the cream of the crop if you consider yourself a honey connasuier.

Caught one last great sunrise from our cabin this morning before heading home. Now back to the grind for a couple of weeks and then off to Colorado for elk.
