One of the three monarchs we raise has emerged!! And he’s ready to take on the world!! One is still in there chrysalis and the other is a caterpillar! More to butterflies to come!
#monarchbutterfly #pollinator #beekeeperslife
THIS QUEEN HAS BEEN CONDEMNED!!
There are a few reasons why a colony may turn on its own queen.
OPTION 1: Unable to mate
A physical deformity may prevent her from completing her mating flight. Without successfully mating, she cannot build the strong workforce the colony needs.
OPTION 2: Poor laying pattern
A queen may run low on viable sperm, causing her to lay an increasingly poor brood pattern—or, in some cases, become a drone layer/ stop laying altogether.
OPTION 3: Failing colony
Sometimes a colony may replace its queen when the hive is struggling. Poor conditions, repeated disturbances, or other environmental stressors can contribute to colony decline, even when the queen isn’t necessarily the root cause.
VERDICT:
The queen must be replaced. She’s unable to fly therefore she can not go on her mating flight and cannot continue to rule!!!
The results are in! ….. for the macro photo I won second and for the scene I won fifth! Now to learn why and work on improving! Stay tune for more pictures!

Every beekeeper after the solstice: 👁️👄👁️
Wasn’t it just swarm season? Now we’re talking mite counts, fall feeding, and getting colonies ready for winter.
The bees are enjoying the honey… while I’m stuck wondering where the summer went.
#Beekeeping #HoneyBee #beekeepers #BeeYard #BeekeepingLife
Story time! On July 4, we found two monarch butterfly eggs on our milkweeds and have been slowly watching them grow! They have gotten so big in just 10 days!
Hopefully in a few weeks time we will be able to watch them crystallize then emerge! Stay tune!

If you’re already waiting on a mite roll, you might as well have some fun with it!!! Here are 5 moves to keep you entertained while you wait. Which one’s your favorite? 🐝🕺💃
#Beekeeping #varroamites #MiteRoll #DancingOnMyOwn #beekeeperslife
Shaken or stir? Alcohol or powder sugar?
No mater what mite rolls are a very important tool in marking sure colonies are in a healthy range of mites!
So what’s your go to choice? Alcohol or powder sugar!

Watch me reset my solar wax melter for the summer! ☀️🐝
This leftover material is called slum gum—the residue left behind after the wax has been rendered. To me, it smells just like fresh cookies at this stage!
While it’s no longer useful for beeswax products, it makes an excellent addition to the compost pile. Nothing goes to waste around here!
Now it’s time to passively melt my wax capping and perhaps some new candles are in our future or something else….
#honeybees #ASMR #solarwaxmelter #beekeeping #beewax
The plan is to keep bees, garden and explore when possible! That would be the dream scenario!
#plan #beekeeperslife #chicken #travel
Spring flow has been extracted! Perfect frames and a nice light honey! I hope the rest of the season the girls do just as well! Pulled 83lbs of honey!
Today we are harvesting our spring honey!!! This spring was lovely for our girls! They brought so much great honey even through they had a late start!
#harvest #honeybee #beekeeperslife #spring #greatflow
IMO this is perfection! 👩🏼🍳🤌❤️

Alrighty we are back for another treat Thursday!
Today we have corn!🌽
And the girls are either singing into the corn or acting like fish. we can’t decide but both are wicked cute! Help us decide in the poll!!!

Time to test your queen-spotting skills!
Can you find the queen? The workers might fool you, but if you look closely, you’ll spot her 👀
Honestly, it took me way longer than I’d like to admit in real time 😖
#Beekeeping #QueenBee #HoneyBees #BeeKeeper #FindTheQueen
Me, 5 minutes after spotting a swarm: “Welcome home!”
The bees: we’ll see about that 🐝
So far they are enjoying their new home!
#swarm #beekeeping #honeybee #pleasestay #massachusetts
At the beginning of June, we started our pumpkin arch! There was a minor setback when a woodchuck enjoyed some of the seeds we planted, but overall, the pumpkins are doing well! And you can’t tell where the snack was taken from.
We’ll give an update at the end of July on how everything is growing! (Perhaps by then we’ll have some little squash bee visitors 💕)

Anyone down for some line dancing?
These ladies are kicking off dance season early. As the temperatures rise, they’re bearding up outside the hive to help keep things cool.
Meanwhile, I’m melting during inspections and trying to keep sweat out of my eyes.
They definitely got the better deal!
#Beekeeping #BeeBeard #HoneyBees #BeekeeperLife #linedancing
It’s Thursday so that means the girls get a treat!
Today’s treat: strawberries ! 🍓 only makes sense since it’s the start of the season over here.
#chickens #strawberries #treat #strawberryseason #chickensofinstagram
See an insect, photograph an insect!
No one questions how many cute insect pals I have in my camera roll. It’s a totally normal amount…. for a beekeeper…
I mean come on! How could you not photograph them? They’re practically asking for their picture to be taken!
🎶 She loves taking photographs 🎶

Will you help me build some boxes for our colonies? Hold the dots and swipe to build the box!!
I feel like I am constantly having to build more supers and boxes for our colonies. Very appreciative of the flow right now
#honeybee #supering #beekeepingadventures #timetobuild #beekeeperslife
Beekeepers, we want your opinion!
When adding another honey super, do you:
⬆️ Add the new box on top of the existing honey super?
OR
⬇️ Place it underneath the filled honey super?
This year we’re experimenting with both methods and comparing the results. We’d love to know what you do and why!
Tell us in the comments!
#honey #supering #beekeeperslife #toporbottom #honeybees
Where do you think the best place to find yummy treats are…….
Of course as close to the source as possible. This girls are funny they can go anywhere they want durning this time but choose to stay with us! How lucky are we!
A great way to spend a relaxing weekend!

Successful queen introductions!
The queens we added on Tuesday have both been accepted and are already laying!
The colonies are bringing in pollen, making room for brood, and showing all the signs of a strong start. It’s always exciting to see a requeening go exactly as planned.
We can’t wait to watch these colonies build up and see how the queens perform throughout the season! Woo!
#requeening #accepted #queenbee #honeybee #beekeeperlife
My week, without context in the yard
No commentary needed. The pictures speak for themselves.
Peep the last slide 👀 the “after” photo no one really talks about but every beekeeper knows.
Still worth it though. Every time!

What do you want us to give the girls next time !?!
#chickens #blueberries #treat #homestead #chickensofinstagram
Today I requeened two of my colonies.
These two colonies were split from overwinter colonies.
One of my favorite parts of beekeeping is watching the colony’s reaction to a new queen.
You can learn a lot from the bees if you’re paying attention.
What things do you look for when introducing a new queen?

Congratulations you have been selected to test your queen spotting skills. Please select all Queen bees before continuing!

Security footage from our apiary. 🐱🐝
Fun fact: Guard bees stand watch at the hive entrance all day. Our cat appears to be conducting an independent investigation. The two makes a great pair nothing will get by them!
#Beekeeperlife #Honeybees #Cat #BeeYard #secuityguards
So why do queens pipe?
A hive normally only has one queen. But because there’s always a chance a queen won’t return from her mating flight, the colony raises multiple queens at the same time as insurance.
When a queen hatches, she makes a high-pitched “piping” sound to see if there are other queens in the hive. If there are queens still inside their cells, they answer back with a muffled “quack.”
And once two queens meet? They fight to the death.
Brutal, but a colony can only have one ruling queen.
So did you know! And do you want to see a queen fight???

Oh man — check out the beard on the Post hive today!
What would you rate this beard… 10/10?
Let’s talk bearding: what it is and why it happens.
Bearding is completely normal bee behavior, especially during hot weather. When temperatures rise, worker bees gather outside the hive to help reduce heat and regulate the temperature inside. This helps keep the brood at a safe temperature so they can continue developing properly.
And no — bearding doesn’t automatically mean the hive is preparing to swarm. A crowded beard on a hot day is often just the bees trying to stay cool.
Want to reduce bearding? Increasing the hive ventilation can help. There are lots of ways to do it, but personally I prefer cross-ventilating the hive or slightly propping open the top cover to improve airflow.
Have you ever seen your bees bearding?
Distance: precise. Directions: immaculate. Vibes: unmatched. Everybody act natural, the honey flow should be starting!
#beekeeping #honeybees #waggledance #honeyflow #massachusetts
We have been very appreciative of the nice weather this weekend. Gave us some time to plant some seeds. Pics coming soon!
And The chickens are very (Im)patiently waiting for their grass to grow. They are hoping there dance will make it grow faster.

POV: you’ve been queen rearing for 4 years and STILL panic every time you graft 😅🐝
Every single time I graft I get that little panic of:
“Will this go well?”
Does anybody else get irrationally stressed during grafting or is it just me?
#beekeeping #honeybees #queenrearing #grafting #bees
These are the things that keep me up at night.
The constant buzzing in my sleep after a long day of beekeeping combined with these is not the vibe I’m looking for.
How often do you have bee dreams? And what’s your most common bee dream!?!

Where is my husband?
Oh… in a honeybee world, there isn’t one
Just a queen and her sisters, humming through golden afternoons, building their colony and taking care of everything themselves 🍯🌼
This colony is looking fantastic so far this season! Queen and brood pattern is very solid! Definitely something I want to see more of!
#beekeeperslife #queen #honeybee #springtime #bee
Tried to melt down some old wax frames… and ended up with this instead 😅
Brought out the solar wax melter (she’s a little past her prime), but with a cracked pane, the heat couldn’t stay in. Instead of fully melting, it just softened everything enough to warp the plastic foundations.
Not exactly the result I was going for—but a good reminder:
Make sure your melter is sealed tight before loading frames/wax… or prepare for some very wonky foundations
#beekeeperfail #beewax #solar #learningexperience #honeybee
Looks like a lawn care ad… but this May, we’re doing the opposite 🌱
We’re Skipping the mow and giving pollinators a chance to thrive.
Not mowing this month means more blooms, more food, and better habitat for bees when they need it most since forage is still scarce.
Sometimes the best thing you can do for your lawn… is nothing.
Are you in for No Mow May?

The post got a major upgrade from last season!
From just getting an outline done last season to this took many afternoons. I am so happy with how it came out! Keep an eye out we have two more new hives also to be revealed (hopefully) this month!

Noodle, Fried and Squid are all happy with their new treat garden. Now to work on there grass garden inside there area. Have to make sure they leave enough for Sunny and Nugget to enjoy some as well.
After coming back from Amsterdam and Apimondia last fall I knew I wanted to add some tulips to our gardens. It has been so fun watching them. And deciding which type we should grow. How many tulips do you think we planted???

This isn’t just another problem. It’s the problem.
Varroa mites are one of the biggest threats to honey bee colonies—and spring growth means their populations are about to pop off too.
If you’re not actively managing mite levels, you’re risking weak colonies, disease spread, and potential collapse.
Stay ahead. Monitor. Treat when needed.
What’s your go-to method for keeping mite levels under control?
#beekeeping #varroamites #honeybees #hivemanagement #spring
The only smoking I’ll be doing today will be for the bees…
Making sure you have your smoker available during each inspection is very important. It masks the alarm signals and encourages bees to stay calm, so each inspections are smoother and less stressful for everyone involved.

One of the best parts of beekeeping? Moments like this afterwards.
Watching the girls casually forage, the quiet buzzing, and the faint smell of honey—it all just slows everything down.
#beekeeping #honeybees #peacefulmoments #naturelovers #calmvibes
It finally feels like spring is here! The nice weather has finally arrived! And there are so many flowers starting to bloom!
I’m so excited to start seeing the girls foraging again. (And all the native bees that are emerging)
Unrushed, unbothered… just the girls doing there thing.

Hot take: we need less manicured lawns and more wildflower lawns 🌼🐝
Those “messy” spaces aren’t messy at all — they’re full of life.
Wildflowers provide food, shelter, and essential nutrients for pollinators that keep ecosystems (and our food supply) going
Nature was never meant to be perfectly trimmed.
Look closer — there’s a purpose in the wild.

Did you know bees choose “dirty” water on purpose?
Those puddles are packed with minerals, salts, and nutrients they need:
• Keep hydrated
• Feed the hive, including growing larvae
• Support honey processing
• Help fight off disease
The next time you see a bee at a muddy puddle, remember — it’s a superfood in disguise!

Let’s talk spring!
Warm weather and flowers are starting to blossom. As the days get longer I’ll start to take a closer look at what the trees are saying.
And they are saying spring is coming. How do I know! Well the trees are budding and in a few short weeks they will start to flower. Which the bees will start to collect pollen and nectar from! Which will mean it’s will be beekeeping time again!!
Spring starts off slow then all the sudden everything is green! Take a moment to look around and see if you can see the beginning signs of spring.
#signsofspring
#blooms

#sunsets
After months of cold, clustering tight, surviving off stored food the bees are almost through winter. The last push!
Soon the sun will stay a little longer.
Soon the maples will bud.
Soon everything will be in bloom.
If they can endure the long, quiet season — so can you.
Spring is proof that survival turns into growth.
The buzz is coming back.
The bloom is coming back.
And so are you.
GIRL!!! ✨
I am SO excited for this season — there is so much in the works and so many exciting things happening!
