A friend of mine and his wife are bee keepers and are the only reliable source of honey with the honeycomb that I know of. He plays drums in a rockin’ country Wyoming band that plays here and in Colorado on a regular basis. In their spare time, when the season is right, they perform another labor of love, the arduous task of harvesting honey.

I helped once and was surprised at the amount of work that goes into mining golden nectar. But I think it’s worth it. When my residence situation allows, I want to do this also. Now, it looks like the process is getting much easier for professionals and novice bee keepers as alike.

Honey is such a great food and bees are SO important to our ecosystem, anything that stresses them less is a great thing. Bees have been declining and failing in health for several years now. Save the bees, get some honey for yourself and see  the kickstarter fund that is behind the new Flow Hive.

Let’s increase the amount of Wyoming honey available. I want one.
