I have a lot to be thankful for. My former company, Miller’s Honey Farms, Inc. keeps me occasionally employed. This morning, as I took my youngest son to the airport we chatted about retirement. I’m sort of retired. I work in January and February placing and caring for bees in almond orchards. It’s hard work, but I love it because I get bees. I understand bees. The more I know about bees, I’ve learned - the less I know about bees. But every Spring, which comes early in California, I re-learn thefundamentals of good beekeeping. It’s a joy. I’m thankful to be employed during January and February - and thankful quite a bit to have Marchoff. I also help with the queen work in April, because there is never enough help during queen-rearing season. And if you’ve ever stuck 15,000 cells in 25 days - you know how good it feels to be finished with those cells.
