Life at 3Farm

100+ hives. Three farms. Two beekeepers. Very little chance of everything going to plan.

This is the less-polished side of 3Farm Honey: bees, farms, extracting, swarms, weather, cut comb, sticky floors and whatever else the colonies decide to throw at us.

If you want the story behind the honey, start with Our Story and Our Apiaries. If you just want to see what we’ve been up to lately, keep scrolling.

The satisfying bit

Fresh honey being capped by the bees. Tiny wax lids on thousands of cells — one of those things you can watch for far longer than is probably reasonable.
