Live Farm Update and Walk around Tour of Stoney Ridge Farm! $100 truck !
What happens here
The tour continues with a visit to the honey bee stand, where several active beehives are shown. The presenter points out a recent bee swarm that has gathered in a nearby Red Bud tree. He explains the beekeeper's adage: 'If they swarm in May, make 'em stay. If they swarm in July, let 'em fly,' implying he won't be attempting to capture this late-season swarm. He then shifts to future farm plans, revealing that he and his wife intend to break ground on a permanent farm home. This new house will be built on the hillside, situated right on the water of a planned 3 to 5-acre pond, allowing for easy access for activities like fishing and jumping into the pond.
Goal: Showcase beekeeping activities and outline major future construction projects
