It is week five of my beekeeping adventure and the bees are still doing great! Queen Golda has been laying eggs and the colony is rapidly increasing at a rate of about 1,000 bees per day. The worker bees have made 10 frames of new comb and many frames of capped cells which contain eggs, honey and pollen. I decided it was time to expand their home by adding a second hive box.
As I continue to listen to the honeybees, I hear them working hard to keep our economy humming. I have learned that honeybees really do take an active role in our economy. By pollinating crops like apples, berries, cantaloupes, cucumbers, alfalfa, and almonds, they are contributing more than $15 billion to the value of U.S. crops. U.S. honeybees also produce about $150 million in honey annually. What an inspiration!
I am always available to listen to your bee stories and field your financial questions. Contact me at jkvasnik@securitiesamerica.com or 651-290-6114 or connect with me on LinkedIn. I look forward to hearing from you.
Bee Well,
