May 2022:
Because of the cool wet spring we got a late start on doing spilts. The girls where just a little slow to start. The splits are done and going great.
We are trying to do cut comb again this year, even though it is a slow spring (for the girls). There is such a demand for it. Once we get the cut comb off the hives we will let you. We will also be offering Chunky Honey

The splits are still going strong.
We where call out to rescue a swarm from the St. Johns area. They are going strong too.
We are adding a Sampler Pack to our product line. This will have a party favor (1.5 oz.) jar of each of our flavors. 22 jars total. These will be in baskets and make real nice gifts as well. Avalable soon
