Last Friday I spent part of the afternoon in my wife’s First grade classroom talking to her students about honey bees 🐝. They were amazing listeners and had great questions! Can’t wait to do it again next year.

FYI - if you see a swarm of honey bees, you can always call a local beekeeper and they will come collect the bees. Here’s a list of names and numbers with their location. I’m the local beekeeper around the Marion area!

We are launching a new website! We would love it if you would check it out and let us know what you think!

In the future you will have the ability to purchase honey online and schedule a pick-up time and we are going to add a newsletter so you can stay up to date on what is in season and available for purchase.

Pumpkin season is hard on my truck! Dropped it off earlier this week with Ryan and he worked his magic, it looks like new again!

If you are needing your vehicle detailed or ceramic coated, Ryan’s Auto Detailing and Ceramic Coating is the place to go!

Thanks again, Ryan!

***Update***
All the pumpkins are gone, thanks for sharing!

We have some leftover specialty pumpkins & squash that would make great food for livestock if anyone is interested. Feel free to stop by and pick it up. If it’s still here Thursday afternoon/ Friday morning we will haul it out to the field to feed the deer.

We also have 5 bales of straw available, $10/each. And we have quite a bit of acorn squash available, $1/each. If you want squash please reach out to me on messenger or call/text 319-533-2293, as I do not leave it outside right now due to the cold weather!

Stay warm & safe out there tonight!

We are really low on inventory for the season!

All large carving pumpkins are lowered to $5, XL carving pumpkins are $8, and all specialty pumpkins are $4. Bales of straw are $10

Due to low inventory and a family function this morning we will be running the honor system, you can use cash, check or Venmo.

Thanks!
