There are a few new ladies in the stable this morning. Thanks to our friend Max Ord for handing over this late season swarm from Wilmington, NC. A big shout out to Mr Worth Parker for supplying the beautiful location.

Health benefits of honey and broken comb on toast with peanut butter!!!

Pure, Unprocessed Nutrients: Unlike most liquid honey, honeycomb is completely raw and unfiltered. It retains natural enzymes, pollen, and propolis that are often lost during pasteurization and filtration.

Sustained Energy: The healthy fats and protein from peanut butter slow down the absorption of the natural sugars (glucose and fructose) in the honeycomb. This provides a steady energy boost without the sharp "crash" associated with refined sugars.

Heart Health Support: The beeswax in the comb contains long-chain fatty alcohols that may help lower "bad" LDL cholesterol and raise "good" HDL cholesterol. Peanut butter also contributes heart-healthy monounsaturated fats.

Immune and Digestive Aid: Raw honeycomb is rich in antioxidants and antimicrobial properties that help fight infections. The honey acts as a prebiotic to support gut health, while the beeswax can promote oral hygiene by gently cleaning teeth as you chew.

Unique Texture and Flavor: Broken comb adds a rich, chewy texture and floral complexity that elevated ordinary toast into a more satisfying, gourmet experience.

Had to pull a few frames early. The girls are working overtime.

Checked the hives today. The ladies are working hard. While the girls have been out and about I went and finished my certification as a beekeeper. We’ll have more $6 chapstick later this month so your lips will be ready for that summer sun or post-surf session. Contact us for details and how to purchase yours.

What do bees say when a perfect set rolls in?

“Those waves are un-bee-lievable!”

The girls are taking advantage of these warm temps. Those yellow “saddlebags” on their legs are the pollen they are collecting. So if you feel like your allergies are beginning to kick in here in eastern NC- you’re most likely correct.

With the warm temperatures over the last few days our bees have been busy. That means we had to get working on our new honey supers. Bring on spring!!

Why did the honey bee refuse to kiss its date?
