The orchard is now closed for the season and we want to thank all of you who came out and enjoyed the season with us! Over all, we had a good year. Mother nature always seems to throw us a curve. And this year was no different. In the end, it makes us all stronger. the bees also had a good year and now comes the chore of getting them through the winter in one piece. As long as they have enough food and the mites are under control, they should be fine. I have had fairly decent luck getting them trough the winter, but I have lost bees. I was told in the very beginning that you will loose bees and if you cant deal with that, then you shouldnt raise them. Its really no different than raising just about anything.
For now, anyway, its time to put the bees and the trees to bed for the winter and enjoy the remaining fall season. Thank you all again and we will see you next fall!
