We took time out of our build to give the bees a thorough check, especially since we are already in the swarm season, and it appears the honey flow is just beginning. As we go through the hives, we make multiple discoveries and then have to make a decision on what to do. If you are new to beekeeping or have an interest in Bees, this video is for you as Jeff always shares a wealth of knowledge as he works.

As We pushed to make as much progress as we could during the first week, our bodies were paying the price. However, we continued to push through and find our second wind as we worked to get the second 50x20 foot section up.

This Is NOT an Excavation Channel
Like we always say, this is a homestead channel and as such we do whatever it takes to get it done and we do it all ourselves! This is another weekly update with a lot of road building footage! Delivery of our Metal building is now a week out and we are close to being ready.

This is not a Mechanic channel…
Homesteading is about an ever increasing self-sufficiency and that means doing as much as you can yourself. Everyday presents another challenge and learning opportunity as we continue to build our homestead from the dirt up. This week was very busy and we continued to make repairs on equipment as well as getting back to moving dirt and much more.
