The Christmas tree season came and went very quickly! Our Apple cooler is empty! The honey has been gone for a while and the bees are balled up and staying warm. We’ll do some significant cleaning up now and get ready over the winter for raspberries and blueberries in July, peaches & apples…
We’ll do some posts for fun over the winter so check in every once in a while.
Thank you for a great year!
