    Nice presentation!
    Editorial: I have come to a place in life where I think Q&A sessions at seminars really suck. The point of this presentation was about changing your Mindset, but all the questions were about beekeeping details, like they totally missed the point. And then half the questioners want to argue their point! Jacob was very patient.

    Great Presentation! I'm in Virginia and the Cottage Exemption allows for 250 gallons of honey without a health inspection. The mindset you describe is what I'm doing about making everything the same or nearly identical, honeybees are not pets but livestock and are treated differently.. Some guy from the local government was treating me like a backyard beekeeper about selling honey and mite treatments as he was not educated and admitted all his bees died.. My count is 20 full hives and 21 nucs in different box configurations, not a beginner based upon prior work experience.

    I also sell honey at a Barbershop, great video. Jumped up to sideliner status last year. Hearing "streamlined" vs "micro-managed" put things into perspective.

    I'm picking this up as a hobby, plus it'll help all the local food sources/gardens. His opening line, "since I was eight years old," gave me butterflys because I have 2 daughters 4/8 respectively. Hopefully they can turn an interest into a passion like he did!

    I had a squeeze honey bear with those little flat ice cream spoons made of wood. No mess, throw the spoons in a trash container. A gross of them was cheap and would last a time. I had a roadside stand setup before and during Labor day weekend for travelers. I also did county fairs over the years. Great way to meet people

    The Honey Quantity of 150 gallons, is not a Federal Law. It must be Kentucky law.
    In Texas we can sell unlimited amount of Honey without an inspection/license. It's all classified as a Farm activity.
    That is for Raw Honey.
    If you want to mix flavors into it, then you need to start looking at the cottage food law or getting an inspection to sell as a food manufacturer.

    Here's a stupid question. Why can't a sideliner do pollination services? Especially if it's locally?

    • @mannlake
      @mannlake  10 місяців тому

      There is no reason a sideliner cannot offer pollination services. It really depends on the needs of the grower.

      My mentor has 80 hives and they all have honey. There’s lots of wildflowers, mesquite, cactus, all kinds of stuff for them. He hardly ever feeds them. He extracted 1100 pounds of honey this year and says it’s much less than he normally gets

      @@badassbees3680 oh yes, a lot of it has to do with geography. You are absolutely correct. That’s one reason watching youtube isn’t always the best educational source unless that youtuber is in your direct area.
      Here in Central Texas, bees do way better on the east side of the I-35 corridor. This is because I-35 was built on the Balcones Escarpment. The elevation and terrain is completely different, even though they’re right next door.

Blanco is very rocky though, so I feel they will need a lot of attention. East TX is good in the blacklands praries. Tons of flowers out there. Land is outrageously expensive these days.
