Collecting honey boxes today. Physically gruelling. 3 trips with 20-40kg of honey each time. This has been our best site so far. Hopefully the driveway will be fixed before the next extraction.

Headed up to the last bee site today to check on the hives. There were two crossings like the first photo, and a 1km trek from the car to the site.

The trees were flowering which is a good sign, hopefully the hives will get stronger and give us some honey in the next couple of months. 🤞🐝

If you are looking to spice up your snack options this week, skip the store-bought pesto and give this yummy recipe a try!

The only tree nut native to North America, pecans were originally cultivated by Native Americans in wild groves since the 16th century (“pecan” is derived from the Algonquin word “paccan”). Spanish colonists took to growing them in orchards during the late 17th century, and this highly-valued nut remained a critical crop for most of the South; during the 18th and 19th centuries, they were worth more than popular row crops, such as cotton! To this day, pecans remain an important, nutrient-dense crop in the Southern states (and Mexico).

Loaded with heart-healthy monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, pecans provide a great source of thiamine (B1) and copper, both of which are important for proper brain function. And, if you are looking for a “good mood food,” pecans are abundant in manganese, which is an essential nutrient in supporting both mental focus and emotional balance.
