Last spring (2023) we got two nuclear colonies to start our beekeeping journey. Within weeks the bees took off and left us with the impression that there was no way they had enough time to produce any honey. We left it alone, but this winter I was passing by and thought that maybe we should check them out – if not just for laughs at the reminder of the runaway bees.
Low and behold, there was Honey! This prompted me to the next part of our beekeeper’s journey as I began to learn the process of extraction and put it all together. I decided to video my process and share it with you all on our TikTok.

Check out our amazing Harvest! It is unbelievable how much honey was produced from just a short amount of time. We have a whole new meaning to “Busy Bee” here at Stoney Ridge Farm!
Guests can look forward to enjoying local honey in dishes prepared through our Private Chef services.
