coming from you, that is a compliment

How are your bees? We moved to a farm upstate NY and a local bee-keeper asked us if he could keep his bees on our property, (he's been doing it for years apparently with the permission of the previous owners) of course we said yes. He gave us some honey in return, which was very nice.

But we have found two hives, one on our property and the other on the farm across the street. Another bee keeper removed them and took them to where they can be protected. I thought it was a good thing to see the hives, considering the problems they are having. We are in farming and Amish country, and as far as I know, they don't use chemicals, not completely sure about that, but I don't think most of the farmers do so. They seem to be mostly family farms.
