Peach season kicking off

The first peaches of the season are getting ripe. We will be spending

Las Cruces. Can't wait.

Snake-like worms

Hot knife in action

Here is a good view of how to cut the caps off the cells to release
the honey.

Honey

Here is Glen with a frame full of honey. He has already removed the
caps from the cells with a hot knife.

Bees!!

I helped Glen harvest honey from one of his hives this evening. It was
amazing to see all of the bees and the inner workings of the hive.

Thinning Peaches

Peaches are getting so dense on the trees that we are having to thin
them. For a big cluster like this we may just leave three peaches.
Ultimately the peaches that remain will be much larger.
