No thank you sweetie ♥️
I'll get it at the beginning of next month!
I didn't know but if you use a metal spoon it affects the honey one has to use a wooden spoon I never knew that and I am 66 !! AND. Only found out a couple of weeks ago
BTW
T H A N K. Y O U SO VERY MUCH YOU TWO. You two make my day and week your videos are truly AMAZING AND PHANOMENAL.
Thank you seeks such a small word but it really does mean alot to me to see how your life is changing and what you both have accomplished wow
@@aquaangelina7270what a load of rubbish. Metal spoons almost certainly don’t make honey bad. I mean, a fraction of the honey actually touches the spoon, what are we thinking, that suddenly the metal spoon shoots daggers through the honey to kill it, my sincere advice to anyone that reads this comment is that the internet is filled with total nonsense and that we should be very careful what we believe. Thanks.
Thanks for this info! I signed up via your link❣❣
Dear Tara & John 1st. the 300 year old olive tree and now the magic of bees discovering their new home. Thank for the magic you are bringing to all of us. What a lovely way to begin my Sunday morning. Thank you so much for the delightful adventure.
You are most welcome Elizabeth. We are so excited to share this journey with you. Happy Sunday and we will see you again on Wednesday 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
First 300 years old olive trees, now 15,000 honey bees 🐝 🐝! Tara, your face just radiate happiness & joy! Thank you for another epic video! ❤ from 🇨🇦💕
Bees❤❤❤❤ im so excited for you and that timelapse was just fabulous. Looking forward to all the amazing things the Newby's will surely get up to❤. Thanx for sharing all this amazing nature with us. Well done Tara you were so calm😊
So fascinating to watch. Thank you for sharing.
Wow! Wow! Wow! This was fascinating, I have never seen anything like this ever!!! Thank you so much for continually sharing the most interesting and fascinating videos!!
When I was at university (I was 52 years old) a friend told me she wanted every bee dead. I was shocked and told her we would all starve to death? She said we could fertilize the plants ourselves. I had a great laugh! Asked her how
many trees she could do in a day with a Q-tip. We are so reliant on bees. I have been stung twice by bees in my life. I am now 76. Let the bees be!
They are the most incredible little animals Lis. We agree, let the bees be 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
What a privilege that was to see the bees swarm and enter the hive, that was just a “WOW” beeutiful moment. Thank-you!!!!! .
And Diego, what an amazing bee keeper to learn from !
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Diogo
One of the best episodes ever ... picked a tear or two, just beautiful 😍
So happy to hear that Belinda 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
I saved episodes for my vacation and this was pure magic!! I was soooo exited I couldn't bary breeth 😂❤ Loved it!!
Diego is the best! "It will be beautiful to see." LOVE.
Bees are wonderful! Be proud and thankful for these silly little busy bees! They are SO important to all your plants and trees, and they are also the great suppliers of honey!! They work SO hard, and their lives are so short!
That was so fantastic to see the bees. And the young man who was doing everything fascinating.
He is amazing and we are so excited to be embarking on this journey friend 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
John and Tara...never a dull moment with you! This was fascinating, and just a little nail biting. I so enjoy my Sunday evenings watching the videos you tirelessly put out, sharing your lives with us. May your bee keeping flourish.
Wow wow wow loved this video so much. I never realised I would be so emotional about watching bees find their new home! What a lovely guy Diogo is. It's so refreshing to watch someone who loves what they do and has such enthusiasm. Really wish him all the best and have signed up to his newsletter. Such a rewarding line of work. Tara you should definitely do that course now you've overcome your fear of bees. Wonderful.
Tara, you've been so enthusiastic about getting the bees on all of the videos up until now, I had no idea you were afraid of bees. Then you explained why...WOW! You are definitely living the "brave" part of your motto. Good for you!
Thanks so much Joan 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
This is one of the most amazing videos I've ever seen on UA-cam. Thanks for sharing.
We are so happy to hear that friend. Thank you 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
It was spellbinding, rhythmic and beautiful to watch.
John is grinning like a Cheshire Cat! having bees is so exciting!
It is so exciting Kati! 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Amazing show! My friend was a beekeeper and he was transporting about 3,000 bees in a bucket with a net on top, he said smell it, so I bent my head down with the incredible buzz and took a deep breath in to the wonderful smell of orange blossoms. Thus orange blossom honey.❤️👏🌵
Diego, thank you for being a beekeeper! My dad was one for many years. I loved it, and still love the silly little busy bees!
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
First the 300 years old olive trees. Now 15,000 buzzing 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝. Tara, your face just radiating happiness & joy! 🙏 for another epic vlog! ❤️from 🇨🇦
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
That “parade of the bees” was wonderful! Scenes like that are one of the rewards of beekeeping. Tara I’m sooo glad you’ve decided to take a course and learn more. I think you will enjoy it thoroughly and replace your fears with a love and respect for what they do, how they do it and the “miracle” that they are. Hours of entertainment and amazement! I’m as excited for you both and before you know it, your boys will be wearing their own beek suits. In the world of bees, beekeepers are sometimes called Beeks. You may have to add a moniker of The Newbeeks….😉❤️🐝🐝🐝
What a stunning video on the bees ! Thank you.
Thanks so much for watching friend 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
I am a first-year beekeeper and have two horizontal hives and it has been just wonderful to have all of these wonderful creatures.
Bees are so important to our lives, even if I'm afraid, I will support the amazing people that takes care of bees. You are now a part of the defenders group of our future.😊❤
If you get stung by a bee, rub it with basil. That’s what my grandma used to do when we were kids.
Can’t wait to see more episodes with the bees. We have two hives, and I LOVE seeing the bees around the garden. ❤
Great tip Anita, thanks for sharing! 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
A great find of a friend (Dieago) patient, knowledgeable and genuinely likable man.
Amazing! The editing was wonderful-Sigor Ros was the perfect music to accompany the video. Tara you'll be a wonderful bee keeper. Diego is so calm and knowledgable-perfect combo for a bee keeper
Such a cool episode. We watch every week. Thank you. I think that 14 year old Tara is VERY proud of you now.
She is indeed ❤️❤️
Bee-utiful. From veggies, to chickens, to plums and olives and now bees what a wonderful, fruitful patch. Well done.
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
John,Tara that was So, So, So Beautiful to see.Thank God None of you got Hurt.And thank you Deigo that was So, So, So Cool.Have a Wonderful day and be Safe always.Love Raquel.Thank you for the Story you told Us.And Deigo thank you for Showing Us what to do.And bringing the Bee's to John,Tara to teach them how to raise them.Thank you again.Raquel.
Thank you for sharing and allowing us, yet again, to “experience” something so beautiful! And again, something most of us would never experience otherwise 😁🤗🥰
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Ohmyword! Tara~first the rats in India, now the bees in Portugal! Girl~you are fierce! Nature is simply wonderful through the lens of cameras~and you and John. That was epic! Diego was so patient while looking for the Queen Bee~it was truly a wonderful vlog! Thanks for sharing! Ida
Thank you Ida! I am trying to be very Brave 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Diego really knows his stuff! How fortunate to have him as a teacher!
We can’t wait to learn so much more from him Steph 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Hooley Dooley! I know you were excited but did you ever imagine you were going to witness a highway of 15 thousand bees march into your hive like that!? I certainly didn’t! That was incredible!
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
This week was simply amazing. Watching those bees walk up to their new home like little soldiers just made me so excited. Thank you for sharing this with us it was simply amazing!
Thank you. 🙏🐝❤️
This episode was really amazing!!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!!
Absolutely incredible!! Thank you so much for including us on this epic bee journey! I can only imagine the energy you must have been feeling to bee in the presence of 15,000 bees…wow
See what I did there 😉💖
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
What an absolutely INCREDIBLE episode!! And what amazing creatures they are - and vital to our ecosystem!
Well done Tara for overcoming your fear!!
Just awesome! And beautiful photography too! Can’t wait to see how the bees get on in their new home! x
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Ive been learning for the past year with our local beekeepers and have a mentor who is teaching me everything in readiness for my bees to arrive this spring. We are also going to be getting our Australian native bees as well that are stingless so we will have two types of bees here. It’s truly an exciting exciting time.
Have fun folks
I understand John not having any the words to explain how very incredible the bees and their colony and lives are. Such an amazing thing to see. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Have to type before I watch this happening ... I am so excited to see this happening ! What incredible amazing creatures from God😊 ❤
As someone deathly allergic, that’s my worst nightmare.
Glad you enjoyed your new farm residents moving in.
🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 Diego (I think) he is something else god love him. Bees everyone save them they mean so much to our earthy living. To see those hard workers heading in their home is remarkable. This man is a 🐝 angel and thank him we are learning new things great education 👏🏼👏🏼.slow motion 🐝🐝beautiful ❤️ tell him he is just amazing nice to watch something beautiful and positive for a change. Thank you
What a beautiful experience. Bees are wonderful and so calming. You might want to set up a bench close by, maybe a bit further away for a start until you get to know and trust your bees and then move the bench closer as you feel more comfortable. I love sitting in front of the bee hives and watching the bees fly in and out. There are so many interesting things to discover and it is very calming.
And note to John 😄 your friend didn't believe in strange things like energy - he just knows 😄 we are surrounded by energy, we are energy, everything is energy. Bees (or any animal - Obi for example) can sense your energy. The calmer your energy when you are around your bees, the calmer they are. We all pick up on each others energy. We don't have to touch things, just by being around each other we can sense the energy. Proof would be, go and stand under power-supply lines. Not only can you hear the power running through them but you can also feel it 😉😊 And on another note.... never go check on your bees when you are upset or under time pressure (been there, done that 🤕😄). Bees will know and they appreciate the calm conscious energy. 🐝💕
Lovely idea Julia, we can see the hive from the outdoor deck so perhaps we could sit there and admire the hive. Thanks for all the lovely support friend 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Nature is so blooming wonderful. It’s what life is all about. So amazing. I love looking for the queen bee.
We have learnt and continue to learn so much about these incredible animals and cant wait to share it all with you too Pam 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Brilliant Tara and John. What you are doing with your land is utterly amazing. Proud of you Tara, overcoming you fears.😊
That was soooooo amazing to watch, how wonderful. It is so important to take care and also protect our pollinators for future generations. What an exciting project this is, can’t wait to see the next episode when Diogo returns. Have a great week!!! Cheers Bert 🙏🏻❤️
Wow! You two are doing so many positive things for our planet! This bee keeping is so interesting
Ahhh!!! I literally screamed with excitement when I saw the beginning of this episode because I knew it the bees have arrived. Oh my family loves watching you and your family. Thank you for sharing. Wishing you all the best!!!
That was absolutely incredible to watch. What a wonderful thing to see. Thank you.
We have 16 bee hives between us in our family ,my 12 year old is our bee whisperer ,too young yet but get the kids involved ASAP, you will get double the pleasure, best of luck
Ah that’s amazing Joffey! We can’t wait for the boys to get involved and go on this journey with us. Thanks so much for watching 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Well, that was amazing! Love how you guys press yourself outside of your comfort zone. It’s inspiring!
Such a beautiful video. ❤🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝I can’t wait to learn more about bee keeping in upcoming episodes
We can't wait to share everything with you Christine, we are just as excited 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Tara e John é lindo trabalhar com essas meninas tão trabalhadoras, saibam que os apicultores não sofrem de reumatismo devido a serem picados por as abelhas durante o seu manejo,mas todos cuidados e pouco. Que seres mais organizados lindo lindo.
Bless the bees, the trees and the Children three! A girl is coming...
This was amazing! Thanks very much Diego for teaching all of us! Great filming Tara, and John thanks so much!
Wow! What an epic episode!! You certainly have been having some monumental moments in your lives lately!
Watching this is so amazing ❤
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Such an incredibly cool video. Bees are beautiful and essential for life.
Well done guys ❤❤
They are amazing Cat 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
From my own experience with bees, don't wear black clothes when you work in the garden. Bees don't like it, they can get very agressive especelly the weather change to rain.
Thanks for the tip Ursula! 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Another BRILLIANT Episode!!! So Good! I want 🐝 now 😂😊 Hello From Florida USA 🇺🇸
They are the most fascinating animals Angela! 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
It’s impossible to keep from smiling at John’s enthusiasm! Great video with lots of information and fun stories. I love that Tara shared about the race during her school days. Bees! We would be in real trouble without them.
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Bees are the most fascinating creatures on the planet.
Wow watching the bees 🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝😘😘😘going to the home fantastic wow 😘🎥🎥

Love sewer playing with the puppy 🐶
Extraordinary thank you all for a fabulous video!!!
This was fascinating! I usually scream when any bug or bee comes near me, but this was just so interesting to watch. Diego is so sweet and patient. Wonderful!
That was amazing Thankyou for sharing Tara John n diago it was very educational xxxx
So glad you enjoyed it Wendy! 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
I thought John was going to burst with excitement!! Thank you for sharing such a unique experience with all of us out here!! Great production and editing also! Thank you for sharing the feel goods!!
Thank you Tanya, definitely one of our favourite vlogs. 🐝🐝❤️❤️❤️
Yes me too. I was very emotional watching the bees enter the hive. It was magical.
Ok lovely watching sweeties 🐝🐝🐝se you Wednesday 🌻🫂🌻🌻
Just more and more cool stuff. 👊
This has to be one of the coolest things Alan 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Tara you are a braver woman than I. So impressed with the both of you getting in there with the bees.
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
How wonderful buzzy buzzy honey bees you've got this Tara and John Ive every faith in you both Xxx ❤
Great video, enthralled the whole the way through, thank you for sharing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks so much for watching friend 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
@@TheNewbys, we never miss an episode, I just had to comment on this one especially, your love for nature in all its forms is inspiring 🙏
It’s incredible to see the bees swarming then marching up the white sheet into the hive. Looking forward to seeing more of them. ❤
I have three or four wasp traps hanging from trees around my property. It's getting to the point where its harder to see bees in our flower beds. So sad.
You are so brave. I got swarmed by wasps years ago and nearly hyperventilated before I could get away. I got stung about half a dozen times. I think I was screaming like a five year old! Lol!
Wow! It's kind of like watching the movie "Ben Hur" and seeing the twelve tribes of Isreal leaving Egypt! Simply epic! Thanks for doing it the long way.
Hi Abigail. We are sorry to hear about your experience with wasps. Thanks so much for watching and for all your support 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
As a former beekeeper, we do things a bit different in the states.
1st would never use
EUCALYPTUS can be toxic.
2. Clean up around the hive. No dead grass etc.
3. Lighterweight suits.
4. Mark queen with special paint dot.
5. Relax slow down movements..
6. Move at coolest temp. They are more docile.
7. Enjoy the experience.
8. Might take a antihistamine before.
Fasinating.❤
Thanks so much for watching Anjo 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
I was literally pooing my pants.... At 57 years old I have never been stung & terrified of them 😵💫
Amazing! My grandfather was a professional beekeeper before and in WW2, having honey helped them survive, eating and trading was very important for my mom’s life.
That’s incredible Glen! Thanks so much for sharing that with us 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Diogo - what an absolutely lovely person!
He is amazing friend, we can't wait to learn a lot from him! 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Oh wow! Amazzzzzing to see the bees transferring to their new hive! Can’t wait to see how they all get on 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🍯🍯🍯
What a great episode! I loved it! So excited! I have a huge respect for bees and I am immensily happy when I see them working hard on my flowers and buzzing around me. It's life at it's peak. And Tara you are brave!💪👏👏🐝🌹🌺
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
I cried. So beautiful. So now John, having had this incredibly mystical experience, do you believe more in the 'energy exchange'? That's what love is after all. Bees and all animals work through these invisible channels, as do we. What a great video!
Hello Monika, (John here) good question friend, I’m not sure, it’s a funny old thing that feeling of utter amazement, loved it. Do I believe? Yes. Definitely in something bigger than our own selves. 🐝🐝🐝🐝🌺🌸🐧🙂

Thank you so much for all your support friend 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Long live the New-bees!🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
OMG So awesome. So amazing to watch those bees walking into the hive. The whole process is just astounding. Thank you. Thank you Newbys.
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
OMG John and Tara, first up the 300-year-old Olive Tree you replanted in the centre roundabout garden looks like it is thriving and looks so good. 🐝The bees are INCREDIBLE 🐝, your garden plants and trees will thank you🙏🏻. 👏🏻👍🏻🙋🏻♀️🇦🇺
It has been a great couple of days on the farm friend! Thanks so much for watching 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Fantastic slow motion images of the bees. Truly amazing to see. Loved this episode.
Tara and John I have bees and I also suffer from a little anxiety.. it is a fact that just sitting next to the bees and watching h them and hearing them brings stress levels down. The buzz actually is a natural relaxation… I also talk to my bees and they say they get to know you personally… my god they are so much more than honey xx absolutely love my bees and mourn of if I loose a single bee xxx I guarantee you will be now hooked for life . Welcome to the alchemy xx
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Hello o wow that so amazing, thank you for the privilege to see the bees swarming and entering there new hive, thank you to the beekeeper to teach you guys about the bees
Your extraordinary lives make me feel such joy .
That was so fantastic to see the bees. And the young man who was doing everything fascinating. So exciting that you will have made your own honey too 🙂🥰
Diogo is so nice, that was incredible! The slomo of the bees flying around the hive was amazing, their legs are all together when they fly I didnt know that. The time lapse was just fantastic watching them swarm in to the Hiive. I did find the bees flying around pretty scary but so pleased you didnt get stung. Im with you Tara I had to run the 800 metres I hated it, I didnt breathe properly so I always lost my voice after it. I loved sports day at middle school as we had the relay, egg & spoon and the 3 legged race, but then it got serious at senior school x
Wow! Wow! Wow! That was amazing...wonderful...Beeeautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!
I loved watching your bee episode. I adore honey but, I have a new appreciation for it. What a process. Everytime I watch your episodes, I feel like I am on vacation.
Thanks so much Sonia 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
I watched this with my eight year old son and we throughly enjoyed it! Bee puns and bee education and all! Thanks for sharing your bee journey! It was delightful or should I say beeeeautiful.😉🐝
🐝🐝🐝🐝
So, so beautiful. Truly mind blowing and yes, heart touching. Loved every minute! 💛🐝🐝🐝🖤💯
Thankyou so much for this amazing video “wow”. Deago (the bee whisperer) shows a respect and knowledge in his craft, just so interesting to watch. Fantastic Tara to hear you are inspired to study bee keeping. 👍💐🌻🐝❤️
🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
Bellows! Is the word you were looking for, but puffer works too, haha😂
Incredible! This was super interesting to watch! Thank you! 🐝 Those bees are going to bee very happy on your farm with all the beautiful flowers you've planted! ❤
Most probably the most beautiful video!! about bees! thank you for sharing this!! no words!! all the luck for all those bees!
Could it be said that you were buzzing with excitement, John? 🐝😆🍯
Watching this episode I'm becoming a hive of bee puns, and too many in one comment space will sting, so before you ask me to buzz off..... 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 Seriously, this was absolutely amazing to watch so thank you!
Don't forget to talk to them and tell them your news, and when you are going away, because they really do need to know 🐝💛🧡🖤
*Hugs * to you all! xx
Love your comment Kimberley! Your puns put the biggest smile on our faces, thank you 🐝🍯❤️🙏🏼
