This is why we keep bees in horizontal hives, and never treat with anything. Less stress for them and us, never dealing with miticide, sugar water, only allowing them to live like bees do naturally, etc. I like less work and a superior product, even if we may get less volume yearly. Quality over quantity.
I'm tired of buying products and services that clearly show how little I mean to the seller. Fortunately, I've been able to replace most of the garbage with better stuff over the past several years.

You can tell that the consumer is important because the product is squared away. Good ingredients, packaging, construction, etc. It arrives and all I have to do is wash away the dirty aspects of my own work. The product helps me focus on providing value instead of fixing another broken product.

When I need wine, I order his. Why? I don't get headaches. I don't feel like garbage when I drink it. It tastes wonderful. The packaging is beautiful. He doesn't cut corners. He cares about the product, and therefore the consumer.
I haven't needed a new wallet yet, but when I do, nostr:nprofile1qqsx845ex2wm3cu9d8e93xm282nmpu33emyr5aufu20s5wt8sx7h6uspz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7tr2s0f is on the radar for that. I'm seeing the same good traits in that builder.
Alternatives to legacy social media built on #Nostr helped me find these people, making it clear that there's room for a completely parallel world to the fiat system.
I don't remember where I was going with this (typical 😂), so thanks to the producers giving me good products. I'm sure there are many others on Nostr that I'm unaware of or haven't purchased from yet.

I'm sure there are some benefits to mass production, but if given the choice, I prefer better quality. Honey is one of those things. I remember honey tasting a lot different back when I bought the cheapest stuff. I doubt it was even pure honey. And it never did what real honey does. I've noticed that with a lot of foods since I started paying attention.
This will be our second year harvesting, sold some lastvyear to guys at work. My buddy, whose parents are from Mexico, said his dad told him he thought it was the best honey he had ever tasted... And the whole family ate the half pound jar in the space of 2-3 hours! 😂

Keep us updated on production. We are regionally close. I'd love to be an online customer once you get to that point.
Will do, should be winterizing the hives and harvesting soon, just depends on work schedule. Teaching my son to work with the bees too, and this year for 4H he will be building a hive and managing one. 😊
Will be looking to move some for sats for sure, and encouraging my son to sell his that way too!
