All 4 colonies overwintered but 1 is failing to thrive. Typically you want to "take your losses in the early spring".

Depending on what i see, it could get combined with another colony so the hive can get prepped for a swarm capture.

One of my favorite shots I've gotten from the farm with my homemade cat toy.

I have footage of a few periods earlier in their lives as well as them feeding on a deer collectively.

The growth stages of a 4 point blacktail deer.

It's always a blast stitching these together as they grow so fast in such a short time.

Past project

Milled from an old orchard log down the road for a client.

I'm terrible at selling the raw slabs but man do I love working with it myself.

Playing with Domino's. Redwood table with mahogany "sipo" Domino's which are rot resistant vs the typical beach wood ones.

Recent commission

This is a white oak table i built for a client. The tree came down in a storm a few years back. The couple loved the tree so much that they wanted to cherish it for years to come, and I got to help.

Harvesting honey last spring. The girls end up cleaning up the equipment from what's left over from harvest.
