Buzzzzzzzz, now that’s a canny swarm ! We ve bee

Buzzzzzzzz, now that’s a canny swarm ! We ve been really busy the last few weeks. The sudden change from cold to hot weather made a lot of bees want to get out ASAP, there have been a lot of swarms !! We ve been going round the beehives looking for ones likely to swarm and dividing the hive. We ve been putting out bait (empty) hives to try and catch swarms before they disappear, we ve also been putting empty hives in folks gardens trying to tempt bees out of chimneys but that doesn’t always work 🤣😬😊.

We have also been moving beehives to different locations (ie flowering beans) taking honey off to bring home and extract and creating nuclei (small new colonies of bees).

It’s a buzzzy life being a honey farmer 🐝 🌼 🐝 🌸 🐝

What a beautiful evening strolling along the river

What a beautiful evening strolling along the river bank. Even though the Chain Bridge is closed you can still explore the riverside paths, enjoy peace, tranquility, nature and stunning views of the Tweed. This is the footpath from the bridge towards Horncliffe. Head to Paxton House for amazing walks on the other side of the river.

This is the Kirkstone Pass, it is the Districts highest pass traversed by road.
We were lucky to spot the Steam Yacht Gondola on Lake Coniston and we saw some Herdwick sheep next to Tebay services.

Willie really enjoyed the black currant and vanilla ice cream at the Honey Pot, Hawkshead. Not that he looks happy about it 🤣🤣

@archipelagoprovisions - hopefully you can get some time off and have a wee holiday soon ! The sun may even come out ☀️
