Wasn't caliber raising honeybees a while back? If so, how'd it go?

Yes. 

 

We lost all of our bees each of the last two winters (four colonies total, two each winter). We currently have two healthy colonies and hope to get some honey this summer. Whatever happens, it's mostly fun keeping the bees. It does suck when they all die or abscond though.

My buddy and his kid are raising bees too. They had a tough summer last year. The hive didn't do well.

Actually I've seen more honey bees this spring than in years past. They are loving all the dandelions in my yard.

At least I didn't let my yard go all to hell for no good reason.

 

Also, I just had a 20 minute nap so the synapses are firing accurately again.

We did take honey from one of the hives this past summer. Both hives died or absconded during the fall. We have three hives currently and will be installing a fourth soon.

I highy recommend the blueberry Belvita crackers.

Seconded.
