5/8/26 – I am almost out of honey for the years, so done attending markets until this year’s harvest begins with the exception of the spring fling at the Washtenaw Food Hub Spring Fling event on Sunday, May 17, from 10 AM to 4 PM (4175 Whitmore Lake Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48105.). I will have a limited selection of my honey, but will have an observation hive, for you to see live bees, and lots of information so you can learn more about honey bees! Come check it out!!!!
The bees are doing well, after a tough winter, but the crazy up and down temperatures this spring have kept them from making much progress on this year’s crop. Thankfully it looks like we have some warmer weather on the way, so I am still hopeful I begin harvesting in June and be back to markets. If you need honey before then, you can see what I do have available on the honey page. Let me know if you want me to put anything out for pick up.
Becky’s Birds and Bees is a small apiary business harvesting and selling local honey produced by bees raised in SE Michigan. I hope you will use my web site to learn more about me, the farm and beekeeping in general. Look for information about my beekeeping philosophy and my honey at the About and Honey tabs, learn about the land I am beekeeping on at the Green Acres tab, and read stories about the happenings of the farm, and about beekeeping, at the Farm Stories tab. I sell honey from a self service stand at the farm when the weather is warm enough to keep it out. I will also sell at 3 farmers markets, Dexter, Chelsea and Whitmore Lake once I start my 2026 harvest.
Looking to buy other local produce? Here is a great resource!
If you are wondering about the ‘birds’ I also raise free range chickens and have added a handful of ducks, who are happily occupying my neighbors pond (with their permission, of course!) At this time I have enough established eggs customers to use all the eggs I am producing but occasionally a customer drops off, so if you would like to be on a waiting list, let me know.
