Late May is a busy time of the year around here. The last frost usually falls between Mother’s Day and the beginning of June so there’s all sorts of planting/ transplanting going on. The girls are wrapping up school and we’re out almost every evening with a recital, awards ceremony or some other wrap-up-the-year event.
Late May is also when the bees come. No, they’re not migrating. They arrive at the Post Office. We order our bees from Wolf Creek Apiaries in Tennessee. By now their bee season has been in full swing for months. Ours is just getting started. We’ve had the early flush of fruit trees flowering but the bulk of our flowers won’t be coming out till June on. » » »
