Bee hives assembled and ready to be painted!

I took the 'beeginners beekeeping class' last fall.  Getting ready to begin my apiary carreer.  Next step.... painting the outsides of the hives so I will be ready when the bees come in late May or early June!

Welcome Sara & Hazel !!!

Mini-donkeys!  We bought them from a local farm.  We went there to look at some baby pot-belly pigs she had, but we weren't really into them....... We'd like pigs, but have to really think about how and where to house them..... they need some warmth in the winters.  While there, we met Sara and Hazel, and really enjoyed their calm, sweet dispositions.  As they say..... got to the store for a quart of milk, come back with food for an army.......  Hazel is pregnant..... due end of June!  Our first baby on the farm.... Can't wait!
