YOU'RE THE STAR BLOG HOP WEEK 2, FEBRUARY 2020
_____________________________
At this point, three months out from New England bee season, we're finishing up an order just in time for another. I'm thinking of offering a trade to the next 'beek' who places an order- a full hive setup for a package and mated queen.

Welcome to the second week of the February 2020 blog hop called "You're the Star"!
I guess when it's all said and done, winter hasn't been that drastic as in year's past. It ain't '78, that's for sure. Sure, we had an ice storm just the other day, where the temps hovered just below freezing to let some mist weld itself to power lines in our area.
Power outages all around us, but not for us. Being off grid has more benefits than simply not paying the power company. Our batteries held strong, and the next day were recharging with gusto.
We're just about half-way through the month, and getting seeds started is becoming a priority. So is planning for the trim on the garden shed.
A new chicken coop, as well, if we can swing it. Don't forget we have a string of sap buckets out all across our property and those'll need boiling soon.
All that, plus production of our custom beehives is becoming a full-time job.
It's one of those deals where each side is getting a better deal, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed someone can do it.
Expanding our bee yard is another of our homesteading goals this year.
Hive orders are projected to only get busier, and that means planning better for next winter. The more I build during our downtime, the quicker we can turn over our orders next season.
That's where we're at. As soon as the snow breaks, well, its game on.
Cheers!
Wendie & Todd
