THE BEES HAVE ARRIVED! This page will be dedicated showing you the current status of the farm. On April 26, 2009 the bees arrived
from Louisiana. They were brought in by a tractor trailer and distributed throughout the different orchards. Pollination is a very important part of setting a fruit crop. Blossoms need to be cross pollinated
with pollen from a different variety. Honey bees are not the only source of this, but the best for the job. Our Bee-Keeper is Andy Card of Merrimack Valley Apiaries, Massachusettes.

Bee hives are placed so the bees can work throughout the orchard. |
