Owner has setup a small apiary of 10 beehives on the property. They are very active and are on track to produce about 1, 000 pounds of pure raw organic honey this year. Last year they got about 700 pounds. What started as a small little side project is growing in scale, but it is still small enough for you to manage if interested or you can hire bee keepers. Owner currently has beekeepers who handle everything. Bees can be removed prior to closing if you prefer not to have them.
- Addendum: As a unique feature, this property is home to a flourishing bee apiary, boasting 10 active beehives that are set to produce about 1, 000 pounds of pure, raw organic honey this year. Last year's yield reached an impressive 700 pounds, leaving ample honey to support the bees during the winter months. This small side project has grown in scale but is still manageable for bee enthusiasts or can be handled by experienced beekeepers if preferred. The current owner has beekeepers who handle all aspects of the apiary, and arrangements can be made to have the bees removed prior to closing, should you wish.
