Please Forward this to all your Friends who are looking for good prices on honey!
Observation Hive ... Did you ever wonder where the honeybees put all that nectar in those wooden boxes (hives) that beekeepers use? Our observation hive has plastic sides, safely keeping the honeybees in, while you watch them storing pollen and nectar. Sometimes you may even see the queen bee laying eggs. Come see nature at work.

One of our customers stopped by last month and made quite an impression.
Larry spent most of his life in the Marine Corps as an electrician - now he is Director of Environmental Stewardship at Walnut Way Conservation Corp -- www.walnutway.org.
Walnut Way Conservation Corp. (Walnut Way) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit neighborhood organization founded by residents in 2000. Its offices are located at 2240 N 17th Street, Wisconsin in a carefully renovated, formally infamous drug house. Understanding the importance of valuing place, residents restored this 1910 house, slated for demolition into an active Center where youth, families, elders, homeowners and renters participate in community development.
"Our mission is to sustain economically diverse and abundant communities through civic engagement, environmental stewardship, and creating venues for prosperity."
