Latest Haul, small batch of honey.
« on: October 11, 2015, 01:43:29 pm »






Here's my latest honey harvest.  I have one more small harvest planned, maybe six deep frames.  That will leave about 60 to 70 pounds of honey on each hive for our short winter.  I've had a pretty productive year.  My estimate is that three productive hives have produced about 250 pounds of honey.  That's not good, but it's not shabby.

Your bottles are beautiful!

@Michelle:

Those are Muth Jars and corks from Mann Lakes.  They are readily available.
