Hi from MD

[Thistle Creek Honey]

My wife and I have been making soap, acne cream and other "products of the hive" that come from our honey bees for a couple years now. We're looking at selling some of our products at local fairs for the fun of it and could use some help.

So jealous! I would loveeeeeeeee to have a beehive! I just made my first honey beeswax soap last night!

The bees and garden keep my off the streets and is lots of fun. If you're interested, I would really recommend taking another look at keeping bees yourself. You can keep them anywhere, the Whitehouse has hives in the middle of DC and they do very well.

Welcome! I also wish I had access to fresh honey

How cool is that. My friend Karla helps to take care of the bees at the White House and my husband is also a beekeeper.
