MN beekeepers
Hi! We're glad that you came to see who we are. John started out with 2 hives of bees when he was in the 5th grade. The bees did well and by the time I met him in 1984 he was working with 25 hives. The night we moved bees "in" for the winter he asked me to marry him. (I said yes) He told me afterwards that he WAS going to ask me earlier in the day when we were carrying a hive of bees over the electric fenc, but decided he didn't want me dropping the bees.
As the bees did well, John expanded his operation each year. At present John runs 400 hives. John does all the bee work while my time is spent bottling and delivering honey. Besides the honey, the bees produce a lot of beeswax. I personally got tired of going into craft stores where the beeswax was priced high. So.....a new adventure with learning about websites and marketing on the internet began.
Our goal is to provide the individual crafter with high quality 100% beeswax at a reasonable cost. Our biggest challenge has been keeping the cost of shipping at a minimum.
