I might add that anyone wanting to avoid my sad mistake should keep this AT
LEAST 60 to 100 yards from the apiary in order to avoid encouraging inter
hive robbing or attacks from yellow jackets which in certain years and
places can be a BIG problem.
 
"....  candles, hand creams, lip balms, you name it!"
 
Does anyone have recipes for these and 'you name its' for wax?  I am looking
to extend our products.
 
Finally,
Being a newbie to this grand group (and Internet) I am not yet sufficiently
organized to extract & keep the info I need.  Thus I lost a recent message
about hive products I think it was pollen in honey, but I am interested in
queen substance propolis etc.  Any info or leads re production or marketing
would certainly be greatly appreciated
 
Thanks
