Congratulations! That is awesome. I must say I am a bit envious. Maybe some day. But for now I will just share in your celebration. Great job! It looks like you must have some happy bees.

Thanks y'all!! I am so excited to have honey. I put the golden stuff in pint and half pint jars to sell at $6 and $4 - I've already sold several jars.

Oooh, lovin' the pics, Joan! Isn't that an amazing feeling, that first harvest (and every harvest for that matter)? You feel like you are literally pouring gold. Congrats on your busy bees!
