Oh I know that none of you really feel very sorry for me because you all have stupid snow of your own, but I would really like just one big snow this year.
Just one.
And it doesn't look like I'm going to get it.
Oh well.
Tonight Wyatt and I are going to our first OSBA meeting.
Do you know what OSBA is?
I'll tell you.
Oregon State Beekeeper Association!
This Christmas I bought some honey from Honeyrun Farm who bought some slippers from me so I wanted to return the kindness and purchase something from her Etsy shop.
Little did I know that this honey would be so beautiful or that the taste would bee so amazing so the day It arrived I immediately got online and ordered some for my sister and she loved it too!
And then I started thinking...
We could grow honey.
We could be bee farmers!
So I've been tossing this thought around a lot and on Tuesday I decided to email Jayne at Honeyrun and ask her some questions and she gave me some answers that led me to the OSBA that just happens to meet six miles from my house TONIGHT.
I'm really excited to find out if this is something I could do...
6 says it's a bad idea because I'll have all the bees named and bee bringing the bees in the house.
Whatever, I will not. Not on purpose.
Anyway, you know what they say...
Whatever will bee will bee.
I'll let you know how it goes.

I hate bugs. I know bees are useful and crucial to agricultural endeavours, but I still wouldn't voluntarily get close to one. Let alone a hive full of the stinging bastards.
ReplyDeleteOh wow - bees scare me but I do love honey!!
ReplyDeleteBees are sure busy! Sounds like a new fun adventure! Can't wait to read all about it.
ReplyDeleteWe have friends that are beekeepers and it is a wonderful hobby. Do it!
ReplyDeleteOh man Bee's not sure I could do that job but I think it's pretty cool.
