Hebert Honey This years honey crop was darker in color due to the lack of rain. Many beekeepers found little or no honey in the hives this fall. Each year the color of the honey varies with the types of plants visited by the bees and the time of year that the honey is removed and the weather. Late honey is usually darker in color because of the goldenrod that blooms later in the summer.There are many other characteristics of minimally processed natural honeythat are important to the consumer.

Spring is not too far away and Honey Flow is fast approaching This winter has been very hard on the bees. It is very confusing to the bees to have the temperatures continually changing up and down. They want to sleep in the cold and when it warms up they start to eat and we consume all their winter stores. So far I have lost 19 of the 20 hives that were here in the yard in Oxford. I am not the only one that has felt the loss this year.We treated for mites this year with Mite Away and Fumigilin with the hope ofsaving at least some. The losses here and everywhere are huge. It is believedthat this die-off is due to pesticides and the unusual weather we have had thislast fall and winter also Mites are the main culprit lowering the resistance ofthe bee and making them susceptible to viruses and disease .
