What can you do with bee venom?  Please keep us informed of your progress. I
have been reading about the various uses of other bee products but I have never
heard of anyone looking for be venom.  Does anyone know the use of that?
 
While we're on the subject, someone I know from California told me that propolis
has amazing healing properties.  What are your experiences using and harvesting
propolis and other bee products (other than honey)?
 
I have two hives in the Catskills that are doing fine.  While I will start
harvesting honey next flow, I would like to maybe consider propolis as well.  Is
it going to be too much work for the girls, gathering nectar and pollen, and
then filling in the apparently unending gaps in the hive?
 
Best regards to all, and thank you for my continuing, daily education on bees,
beekeeping, and beekeepers.  After reading this list for several months, I am
glad to count myself as a member of this profession.
