We extracted 200lbs of Spring honey from the apiary bees on Saturday 31st May. A big thank you to AliMac for putting the clearer boards on; Dennis for loaning a state of the art extractor; Marcus for driving miles and working flat out all day; and to Guy and Ann for returning the supers to the bees. Pete will now store the honey, warm and strain it before eventually jarring it for sale at 'the Hollies farm shop'. Everyone involved is a volunteer and the money raised supports the apiary running costs. (See July Beelines)
