She is a great teacher: she is not only teaching us how to look after our bees responsibly but has helped set up our apiary to support the vegetable gardens, orchards and greenhouse produce. The family love the honey produce and the handmade gifts made from the beeswax collected from the hives. Truly thankful for her help and guidance. Here's to many more years of beekeeping!...
