one-of-a-kind morning Join Coffee with Dr. Jo and the Bees at Purple Haven Lavender Farm in Haldimand County, Ontario. A hands-on beekeeping and honey bee experience featuring live hives, pollinators, and optional apiary photos. Perfect for families, gardeners, and nature lovers.
Today I went to put out some bumblebees on the haskap - expecting it to be pouring down rain.
I also happen to have an apiary at the farm - and with the deep, deep snow I had not been able to get out to check on the bees before I left the country 3 weeks ago.
It was beautiful sunshine and I do an impromptu check on the apiary - and decided to film it!
Share in my joy! It’s a completely unplanned visit to the apiary.
Always the hardest part of the season is finding out if your bees lived or died. I sometimes avoid the walk longer than I should - although less attached than I was years ago.
I had massive losses at this apiary last year, and it was devastating So having more survive from a mere 5 hives going into winter at this location was a huge win!
Overall a good survival year!
Bring on bee season!
