From the South Lawn


From the New York Times, "From the South Lawn - a Sweet Smell of Honey"

For the first time in history, honey has been made on White House grounds. It's a bumper crop.

  1. I was so thrilled to see them doing this. It's a great educational tool. I hope our Prime Minister considers it too. If I lived in Ottawa I would have written him already :)

  2. Great video, and a great example for the rest of us - get out there and start keeping bees!

  3. did anyone else find this HIVE STAND to be an "interesting height"???? YIKES! i wondered if it's cemented into the ground too? i noted the straps... i suppose all of this is designed to prevent the "molesting of the hive"...???
