Question 1

Do you do Beehive and Swarm removal?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We will come to your home or farm and take older colonies if you are no longer interested in keeping them. Additionally, we will come and remove a swarm. This is typically a large amount of bees in a tree. Please don't hesitate to call.

Question 2

Do you harvest your own animals?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Some people will chow down on a piece of bacon or enjoy a pork chop but never truly understand how it got to the package. Most people think bacon takes a few minutes on the stovetop when it actually takes a better part of a year.

Question 3

Do your kids understand it?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they are not with me yet to see the actual moment the animal is harvested, but both have been there while we butcher the animal.

Question 4

Do you enjoy it?

Accepted Answer

Of course! It is a labor of love!

Question 5

How did you learn to do all this stuff?

Accepted Answer

Lots of internet research. Different blogs and articles along youtube. It is also a huge amount of trial and error.

I have also joined additional groups like Morris Somerset Count Beekeepers Association, New Jersey Beekeepers Association, and the National Beekeepers Association. They provide endless insight that make beekeeping easier.

Question 6

Do you get stung a lot?

Accepted Answer

Not often although there have been a few moments when I said to myself, "Well this is dumb." It was all worth it in the end
