25.01.2022 If you’ve got some spare time this Sunday. Why not pop out to Manilla for the CWA Markets. We will be there with Honey, Wax Wrap sandwich bags and lip gloss. Wee have a little surprise up our sleeves too. See you all Sunday

24.01.2022 We would like to thank everyone for their concerns and support. We are so very happy to report the bees are coming along very well as your all aware the Drought has been pretty tough on the girls. However we have had some decent rain fall in Manilla as of late which is fantastic. Seeing some great laying and also drones (male bees who do nothing meaning the conditions have to be pretty good to have drones.) This is a frame out of the Brood box of one of our hives. ... The bright yellow and orange is pollen The white is larva and the capped cells are brood. (brood cells is where the baby bees are hatched from) Unfortunately it may still be some time before we have honey. Being we are in middle of one of our toughest droughts with no end in sight we need to leave enough honey stocks with our hard working friends to ensure they are happy and healthy.

24.01.2022 Yesterday we moved the girls, just down the hill is a field of catheads. Catheads are high in protein. Which helps build strong hives ready for the winter months. Check out their view.

21.01.2022 Do bees rest at all ? Yes, they sleep 5 - 6 hours in 24 hours period and many bees hold each other's legs as they sleep. Some native bees sleep in the flowers.... #beesleep #nativebees #rest photographer Joe Neely (You can found the original of this photo and many more amazing photos of nature and animals on www.jmneelyphotography.com See more

20.01.2022 The drought doesn’t only affect farmers, the bees take it pretty hard too, But we’re pretty happy with the way they are handling these dry times. All hives still have some honey for their survival, although their pollen levels are low we are praying for rain and flowers to keep them strong. We are currently out of honey, our main concern is to keep the girls healthy, so any honey they have is theirs till conditions pick up

18.01.2022 Why Does Honey Crystallise? It is a common occurrence in household pantries. It’s probably winter, and the jar of honey that once contained molten golden honey has suddenly changed and become whiteish and semi-solid. This crystallisation is normal, but is usually met by distaste, as the honey-owner feels that their jar of delicious syrupy joy has suddenly spoiled. However, this process is natural, as real raw honey does crystallise. In fact, it reflects your honey is natural ...and good quality. In nature, honey often crystallises, or sets, in the comb. It is a spontaneous and completely natural process that sees unheated honey become more solid, change colour and form crystals. The process is not always uniform, and sometimes the crystals will form on the top section of the honey jar, while the bottom part remains liquid. Some crystals are large and gritty, while some others are fine. So, how does this occur? Honey is a supersaturated solution of three sugars: glucose and fructose and a small amount of sucrose. This natural phenomenon occurs when glucoseone of three main sugars in honeyspontaneously precipitates out of the honey solution. The glucose loses water (becoming glucose monohydrate) and takes the form of a crystal (a solid body with an orderly structure). The crystals make a lattice formation which immobilises other components of honey in a suspended structure, creating the semi-solid crystal state. The faster honey crystallises, the finer the texture will be, and as it forms crystals, the colour of the honey lightens. Despite this looking strange, there is actually no effect on the honey itself; it will still taste the same and has not deteriorated in quality in any way. Actually, this process works in the opposite way, preserving the flavour and quality of the product. As the taste becomes richer in this form, and the substance’s higher viscosity means it is easier to spread, crystallised honey is sometimes preferred by consumers, and asked for in certain recipes. It is the perfect consistency to spread on toast or sandwiches! However, if you want to reverse your honey back to its original liquid form, the honey jar can be placed in a pot of warm water and heated to a low heat until liquid again. Alternatively, the jar can just be left in a bowl of hot water for a long period of time, not on the stove element. A quick blast in the microwave for a couple 15 second intervals can also help reverse the crystal forms. Despite this returning your honey to the way it was originally, honey will re-crystallise if not used quickly. Do not despair or throw your honey away as this is when honey is (debatably) at its best and most flavoursome. See more
