It was an odd year for honey production. The odd weather patterns this spring seemed to have an adverse effect on some flowering plants and trees my bees use to produce honey.....so it's looking like it's going to be a very down year for honey. I'll still have some for sale, but not anywhere near what I've had in past years.

I grew more bees this year, so hopefully next year's harvest will be enough for everyone that buys honey from me.
