The Unexpected Beekeepers, Year Eight 2023

​​​​Calendar of Events and Happenings

 January 2023:   Happy New Year  

      We have 2 more hive host for this year. One in Muir area and one in Bay City. We have had many people are asking questions, they are curious. These 2 apiaries will produce honey in 2024. The Maple Rapids and Grand Ledge apiaries will get honey late this summer.

      Phillips Orchard has picked up a few of our products. You can find them in their St Johns (1995 E Gratiot County Line Rd, Saint Johns, MI) store. If all goes well, they will put some in their Lansing (close to the Sears Building & Frandor: 3000 Vine Street, Lansing) store 



 February 2023: Happy Valentine’s Day   

       We have had some great news, and some real bad news. The great news I am sworn to secrecy for now.  The real bad news. Tom’s job is moving to Mexico. They state that no one wants to work, no mater how much they pay and the screwed up supply chain. So they are packing up the factory one line at a time and shipping it across the border. Not everyone is getting laid off at the same time. Tom’s line doesn’t go until end of September. Very frustrating.

      But They (the factory) have agreed to pay for classes for Tom to get his welding certificate. This will help him get a better job. So he is going to work there until end of September or until they stop paying for classes. So far he is doing great in his classes

  

 

March 2023:  

      11 March Bee Conference: Saw many people. This use to be a 2 day event. That was so nice when it was. More info passed around, More time for friends.

      Thank you to another Hive Sponsor. We now have 4 hives being sponsored. Sponsorships are for three years. Curious? See our website, check out “Help the Bees” page. The Sponsorship and hive hosting programs we have are explained there   



  April 2023: Happy Easter   

The season begins

      This year is not starting out well. We had one of our apiaries sprayed with some kind of a pesticide over the winter. Every hive is dead. We cannot reuse any of the honey or comb. That will just kill the next hive we put in them. We are going to scorch the inside of the hive boxes and let them et and air for a couple years. Hope this passes. We are removing bees from this field. 

Sorry we have just had a sting of bad luck the past couple of months. Trying not to be so cranky and harsh. 

       Because of the loss of the one apiary and the higher than usual bee mortality over the winter we are not able to full fill all the request for hive hosting. We have talked to the host and they understand. Just delayed a year. So understanding. 

      Those of you that are sponsoring hives they made it through in good shape.  We have that. Added boxes to hives to ready them for splits. Fingers crossed for lots of growth, lots of good splits.
