Honey Facts!
Honey bees wings flap 11,400 / sec. and they will fly up to 7 miles away from their hive in search of flowers.
A worker bee visits up to 100 flowers during one collection trip.
To produce a pound of honey , a bee must tap into two million flowers.
Honey bees must fly over 55,000 miles to produce one pound of honey.
Beeswax Facts
It takes a lot just to produce 1lb. of wax! Bees produce beeswax in small scales. It is estimated that the bees must consume about 17lb. of honey and produce approximately 500,000 scales to come up with just that one lb. of wax. Busy bee!
Invented?
Bees have a handle on air conditioning! When the hive is in danger of overheating, select bees bring back water and dribble it around. Then they all gather at one end and flap their wings in the same direction, thereby cooling the hive down.
Honey Moon
Fermented honey, known as Mead, is the most ancient fermented beverage. The term "honey moon" originated with the Viking practice of consuming large quantities of Mead during the first month of a marriage.
Welcome to our beeswax page. All of the candles on this page are crafted
with the goal of perfection in mind, and made from 100% beeswax, using an all natural cotton wick.
They are made the old fashioned way in our candle shop, by dipping them over and over again, into a large vat filled with hot aromatic beeswax. When we are dipping the whole shop is filled with the scent of honey.

50 Active...
That's right, Alaska has 50 active volcanoes! Which is something that we found out first hand
so to speak. One day, early in the morning while it was still dark, we all woke up to a funny noise that sounded somewhat
like rain. Only had a very soft hissing sound to it, kind of like, well we we weren't exactly sure. So we all ran outside, and stuck our hands
out from under the porch roof. And well, they didn't get wet... we drew our hands back rather puzzled and inspected them. They were covered
In soft gray dust and sand. At that point we all shouted "Ash!" and then
"Eruption"
