Pollinator week celebrates the unsung heroes, our pollinators! Say good-bye to manicured lawns and plant your yard and gardens with native plants, trees and shrubs. Native plants support our ecosystems, air, soil, water and plants making planet earth a safer place for humans to live as well as providing food and habitats for our pollinators. If our pollinator populations continue to decline, so will the humans.

It was a very sad time last week in the apiary. We lost both of our colonies due to pesticide poisoning. We would like to extend a huge thank you to Jeff, our region’s Apiary Inspector, who came out to our apiary, confirmed pesticide poisoning and taught us some ways that we can be better beekeepers. We were informed it will take about 2 months for the test results to come back but we may never know exactly what pesticide infected the colonies. All pollinators can be affected by pesticides by simply drinking from a water source that has run-off from the pesticide sprayed area. Thankfully we have 1 more colony at a family farm in Limerick that is thriving and healthy. Our hive in Limerick is an established hive that is 2 years old. Our plan is to establish new colonies on the Painted Sky property in the spring of 2024. For now, we do have honey available in the produce stand from last year’s harvest and it looks like we will have another good honey harvest in mid-July from the hive in Limerick. We also have honey from LaFountain Mountain Apiaries which is in Schuylkill Haven which is a thicker, darker honey and it’s DELICIOUS !

Plant a pollinator garden and support our pollinators!!
Bee Kind. Bee happy.
