Not here, had flurries this morning, glad I gave up farming years ago, working ground on an open tractor on a day like this was considerably less than fun.

When you catch one, put it in here and let them fill them Mason jars for you! :coffeecom

Then all ya gotta do is train them not to store pollen in the jars, only the honey. Easy beezy, right?!?!! [smilie=p:
Yeah. I just don't see this working.:popcorn:

Yeah. I just don't see this working.:popcorn:I know folks that do something similar..makes for pretty jars but quite frankly it isnt practical for eating. 8)
