About Us

My interest in honey bees took off after asking many questions of a friend who has been keeping honey bees for more than eight years. He invited me to attend the Cherokee Bee Club's annual bee school and after that I was hooked. While keeping bees my first year I introduced a great friend to beekeeping and he attended bee school the next year. Subsequently, we went from two hives to five. Our passion for honey bees has inspired us to create this website to share our experience and encourage current and future beekeepers. We want to share with other honey bee lovers.

Below are pictures from our hives.
