It's not to everyone's taste, but I like the darkness of the honey. In a hot dry summer the bees can be a nuisance, as they come by the thousand to drink at our fountain, right by the pool.Cro Magnonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06840670227576695352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833049860541499858.post-57670860164895656442011-02-20T17:17:23.994-08:002011-02-20T17:17:23.994-08:00Suit yourself.Suit yourself.Tom Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979590950587415840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833049860541499858.post-50770508069772642932011-02-20T04:24:43.953-08:002011-02-20T04:24:43.953-08:00I just bought a kilo of beeswax from a man in Ches...I just bought a kilo of beeswax from a man in Cheshire, Cher.

(They also have three rescue greyhounds now living the life of Riley and being taken for walks through the woods in their smart new jackets.) <br /><br />Dear Bonnie, the orchard contains apple and plum trees and my garden has apples and pears. But I'm now wondering if the edging to my veg plot thoughout the summer months of prolifically flowering chives might have an adverse effect on the taste of the honey.Share my Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08817611851604816123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833049860541499858.post-56465909413325953622011-02-19T18:53:21.510-08:002011-02-19T18:53:21.510-08:00What delightful deliveries today!

What kind of orchard did you place the hive? If there are flowering trees, don't you suspect your honey will have a hint of their flavor?Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06285041048746416249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833049860541499858.post-18454800799803613442011-02-19T17:23:24.453-08:002011-02-19T17:23:24.453-08:00Oh how exciting to have a hive on the property.

All your plants and flowers will benefit from their busy work.<br /><br />I love that hens are being rescued from those nasty places...I heard about this on Gordon Ramsay's show and have read about it in Country Living UK...I have the utmost admiration for those taking these hens and saving them....glad that the eggs taste good too!hostess of the humble bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453827257671312902noreply@blogger.com
