Rip said "Why would the owner of Ross Rounds be producing non-Ross
Round comb honey
and telling the whole world about it? "

My 'telling the world' is not new, and has been going on since just
after dirt was discovered!

I guess I don't mind because there is no question that we (Ross
Rounds) don't have all the answers.  We know that because we are
serious beekeepers, with just over 200 hives AND we buy a few tons
every year.  Cut comb has its place, principally for chunk honey,
which is a wonderful product, that I never seem capable of producing
enough of to serve demand.

In comparison to the capabilities of honey bees, I stand humble.  We
have, IMHO, great products in the form of section comb honey
equipment, Sundance Pollen Traps, and custom labels.  But these only
allow us beekeepers to properly take advantage of the natural
tendencies of honey bees.  We don't pretend otherwise (unlike some
others who would like to think they are our competitors).
