Time to raid the beehive for our first lot of St Potan honey.
With help from Alan and Jane, who are more experienced in these things, the hive was checked out, and another chamber added for the worker bees.
The hive is healthy and well stacked with bees, and although it took a while we found the Queen which had been marked with a pink dot last Autumn.
Just one chamber was raided and that produced some delicious honey.
Not to much of a floral flavour, which is what we prefer.
