Harnessing The Honey At Sarah's Bee-utiful Project

Remember back at the beginning of the summer, when Sarah started a climate change project with bees as the main actors? Those bees have been doing their thing and now it's time to do a little honey harvest.

This harvest happened at the end of July and was the second time the hive needed it. Her honey runneth over!

The beekeeper cracks the hive.


Inside, the workers have been buzzzzy.
Sarah and a co-worker scraping wax off one of the trays so the honey can be extracted. A sweet, messy exercise.


Into the centrifuge for separation. Future bee master, our nephew, inspecting the good stuff.

Good? Great!
