This apiary is owned and operated by Scott and Valarie Wilson. In the beekeeping world we are known as sideliners. What started as a hobby has now grown into a small Vermont honey business.

If by chance you have stumbled upon our website, we welcome you. We update our site periodically, so please check back from time to time. We keep our friends updated through our Facebook page. Please give us a "Like" and walk this journey with us.

As backyard beekeepers we are guilty of becoming robbers—thieves that is of the sweet-golden liquid that we call Heavenly Honey! We're in good company. Honey thieves date back to biblical times:

With great zeal, we delved into this adventure as a mid-life hobby during 2007, starting with one colony of packaged bees. However, we have been told that we can no longer call ourselves "hobby" beekeepers. Our official status is that of part-time beekeepers, per Dr. Medhat Nasr, who recently spoke at the Vermont Beekeepers Association meeting.

2013--our seventh season as beekeepers. Time does buzz right by!

We're looking forward to working some markets and getting the honey extraction room set up late June as we will continue to offer honey extraction services. Thanks to all of you that entrusted us with getting your honey from the comb to your buckets during 2012.

Regardless of the stings and the volatile nature of this avocation, we enjoy our honeybees and look forward to the 2013 season!

Thank you for stopping by,

Scott and Valarie
