Don’t mind us…we’ll be sleeping in the garden beds until summer 😂 Thankfully it’s sunnier today! ☀️👀
How do we feel about spring snowstorms?!

Shhhhhh the farm is sleeping. We are so sad to not be out there as much, but it is time for our farm to get it's well earned rest. While on the surface there's crazy winds today, we know below the surface mother nature is taking its course.

We can't stop time, but we sure can take a few snippets and replay them on these recovery months. This year has brought so much harvest, opportunities, successes, fails, lessons, and growth. We are beyond grateful for it all, and ready to go even bigger next season. Our farm, participants, program, educators, community, sponsors, supporters, partners, and volunteers have all been very important pieces to our success. Thank you!
Yesteday we had an awesome visit from John, @freerangebeehives. He walked us through the process of preparing the hive for the upcoming cold months and winter. Found out we now have up to 50,000 honeybees, looking like we might be able to split into two hives in 2023. The queen is also very active and is laying as many eggs as possible, so much so she has moved to the uper panels (the ones we took out in the video). If all looks good and there is edible honey from what John took, we might be getting some honey to share by the end of the year! Super exciting, since we were expecting them to only create enough for themselves this first year. We are just beyond excited and proud of our honey bees and our farm for being a great enviorment for them.
