We only used the large and medium filters. As most honey contains pollen we weren’t worried. Every batch will taste different depending on what flowers the bees are collecting nectar from. We are very pleased with our first attempt. It’s delicious. Always great to have my little helpers lending a hand. YACCster, Hoth, major-mark63 and 12 others 15 Awards

The honey over here from wild bees are amazing. And I get along with the bees really well so I wouldn’t mind having them around all the time like they are now. very cool weed! that’s a great experience for the granddaughters. make sure you let those girls know honey lasts forever. They found honey from long long time ago and it was still good. WeednFeed 1

I only bought 1 and made the rest. Lots of plans on line to build the hive. The only thing I would not build are the frames. I use plastic foundation that must be purchased.

You can catch all the free honey bees you want during swarm season. The equipment can be very expensive to start out. Most Bee equipment suppliers have started kits. It is very important to have a mentor to guide you, most local bee clubs will have training and a mentorship program. Enjoy good luck Awards
