Leave it to a Honey Bee to take advantage of Asa’s inquisitive good nature. As I mentioned in a previous post, spring is off to a slow start here in Maine. Whereas we usually have a lush field of dandelions for our Honey Bees to feast on, this year they are just starting to bloom. […]
Asa and I are planning to go on a lot of road trips this summer, to spend the day exploring new places, and we hope you are too. Therefore, today we are sharing our tips on how to prepare for a road trip with dogs. Safety First: Just like your humans wouldn’t go on a […]

Asa and I are buzzing with excitement because our new Honey Bees have arrive safe and sound to their new hive. As with previous years, these Honey Bees are from an apiary in Georgia.
