    I want to tell you about this lady who keeps about 8 hives at Cog Hill Farm. She was there doing her check on the hives and it was so interesting!!! She showed what a queen cell looks like on the frames. She took those with her to start new hives. She puts a dryer sheet on the of the hive to get rid of mites. She writes down on the top about what is going on with the hives. I hope you don’t get upset about me telling you this, I just thought you would enjoy watching this woman work. Please double check behind me, I know it’s a dryer sheet but just check that. I remember how the sheet looked like they were doing a great job!!! Looking forward to meeting your new bees 🐝 ❤❤❤

      Correction.. She put a Non-Scented Swiffer cloth for mites.
      The mites get stuck in fiber, but doesn't bother the bees

      Hi Steph👋
      You are Mrs Perfection! I will never have hives myself. But I love ❤️ learning. What diff styles you n PawPaw have!
      He makes do, improvises, uses what he has. His sugar water dispenser is a tin pie plate!
      And, thats ok. And he gets the job done. You are text book perfection. From your garden to baking, to everything you do. G d bless 🙌 you! Even how your hives are set up is perfect n pretty! Lol. I love ❤️ watching you work, all right in knowing I'll never reach your level. And that's ok too.
      I love ❤️ learning n you're a wonderful instructor.
      One day I hope you video honey extraction. I'd love ❤️ to see how it's done.
      Thx 💙 for sharing.
      Have a blessed 🙌 day.
      Stay safe n well.
      ❤n 🙏s always.
      Elly 🇨🇦

      I saw that I think the swiffer sheets catch ( swiffer sheets not Dryer sheets )the mites or other insects and it’s non- fragranced also ! Yes it’s amazing and I loved how detailed she was with her showing us and explaining how snd why she did everything and Brooke is learning from the lady who keeps her bee hives at Cog Hill ! God bless 🙏🙋🏻

      Steph another interesting video. We had honeybees in the inside of our barn the outside wall. They would be swarming. You had to be careful working around them or you'd get stung. We finally had a fella who worked on our well was interested in them so we let him come collect them and rehomed at his place. They had all kinds of honeycombs in that wall. Great job Steph.

    My late brother in law of 40 years was a beekeeper. He passed away about 2 1/2 years ago and I have about 1/4 cup of his honey left. We all miss his local honey! On another note, I work in the delivery service and delivered my first hive of very active honey bees in my personal car (suv). There were about two out on each side (4 total), they were not interested in leaving the hive, so I just covered them with a large flannel shirt I had in the back. They traveled fine with no incidents. Needless to say, I aired my car and shirt out overnight in the garage. Oh, I had lots and lots of birds too, mostly chickens. It was loud and the aroma was interesting. Lol.

    Norma here. You have so much knowledge about so many different subjects and I love the way you explain everything you’re doing.
    My uncle was a beekeeper, but my fear of bees kept me from learning anything about them. Between you and Paw Paw, I’ve learned so much. It’s so funny to see how different you two do things, but get the same results.

    There is no comparison to local honey. Not to mention the health benefits you get from honey from local hives. It is all that buy. There is one bee keeper in my city that I buy my honey. I guess I am honey snob. 😂 I can only imagine honey from bees in your own backyard! Great beekeeping lesson, Steph. 🐝🍯

    Afternoon Stephanie another great informative video. Love the bees videos that you and pawpaw do. Wish more people kept bees and more people knew how important they were to our environment. So looking forward to the next video of you and pawpaw getting your nuke. Be interesting to see how they establish. My nephew has ecoflow hives as well as ones like yours. I prefer the ones like yours where you collect the honey whereas the ecoflow you just turn the tap at the front at out comes the honey. Have a safe trip getting the nuke with pawpaw. Glad you didn’t get stung and they were kinder to you. Have a great day. Take care and God Bless. 💕🙏🧑‍🌾🐝

    🐝 🍯 I find it very interesting ~ I watched another channel inspecting their hives. So much work involved. You mentioned honey at the grocery stores being from another country. I never knew that until I went to BJ’s (Costco type store) … on the top of the lid it listed about 3 different countries that it could be from…. 😮 I thought that it was dumb…why would I buy it. I’m trying to find a local beekeeper to buy honey from. The price is justified knowing the work involved. Thanks 🌻 for educating us. Looking forward for your next video ~ no matter what the subject is.

    Organic fresh honey holds no comparison to nonorganic (cheaper “stuff”) grocery store brands .
    I for one could never foresee myself being a beekeeper but totally admire those of you who do !! I hope your bees/hives do very well for you and Pawpaw !!
    Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Be safe my dear one !!
    I also wanted to ask you if you had a preference as to which brand of canning lids you found that worked best for you in sealing your canned goods ?
