Last year I captured a swarm of bees and set myself up a new hive. I’ve never done beekeeping so this was a learning experience. But considering how little effort it’s required so far, I’m in for the long haul. Maybe I’m naive, but so far I haven’t had any problems and all I’ve gotten was a huge harvest of delicious natural local sugar.
In this vlog we head out to my vineyard to check on the hive and do some stuff with the grapes. I’ll also explain some of the ways I’m making use of the honey I harvested this season.

Hi Dan,
I thoroughly enjoyed this video about honey. You certainly seemed at ease handling the bees! Your video provided a brief respite for me, just watching you create a large batch of honey (which I love) from one bee box was impressive.
Thank you and please keep making videos of how you live a rich life in Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage.
Thanks for the encouragement, Dianne! I’m glad you liked the video. your encouragement spurs me on.
