Hi, I am a backyard beekeeper registered with the Placer County Agriculture Department. I currently care for a hive of very gentle bees. I keep an organic garden in Roseville, California, and add pollinator plants and vegetables to my property as often as I can. It’s great having the bees around. - Carole Gan

Honey from the Happy Hive.jpg — Honey harvest from 2020 was huge, but with the 2021 drought, my bees collected less pollen and nectar. I harvested four small frames this year and left the remaining honey for the bees to have over the winter.

Next Availability for Honey - Late summer 2022. Text or email me to be added to the contact list for when I have local raw honey again in summer 2022. (I do not share or sell my email list to anyone.) 916-765-2304 gancarole@gmail.com
