Beeswax Candles – Pros; No Cons
Beeswax candles actually clean the air rather than fill it with pollutants as petroleum-based paraffin candles do, benefiting those with environmental allergies, sensitivities, and asthma. The high melting point of beeswax results in a burn time 2-5 times longer than other candles. This high melting point also results in very little dripping, if any, which suits the taper candles as a […]
Michael – A Master Beekeeper
Congratulations Michael! May God continue to bless and use you as you pursue His best for your life. A business is much more than the products we develop or the services we provide – it is primarily the relationships we develop. The requirements to achieve a Master Beekeeper status not only include a mastery […]
Sassafras Season
It might be winter now, but Sassafras (or Sassyfras to some) season is just around the corner! Some time in the first half of February, well before the trees start to bud and after the ground has thawed, you can dig out a few Sassafras roots (a little goes a long way) and enjoy Sassafras […]

Our method of making it has changed in small ways many times and we have tried many different varieties, some of them unforgettable! 🙂 At the present […]
This week! Senate to vote on Kagan for Supreme Court
The Senate is expected to vote this week on Kagan, Obama’s recent Supreme Court nominee. Since Kagan has never before been a judge, and therefore has no judicial record, how do we know where she stands on the issues? Thanks to many who have done the research for the rest of us, some very startling […]
Snow Much Fun!
The huge snow storm turned our original 6-hour trip to North Carolina into an exhausting 20 hours on the road. What a joy and refreshment it was to finally reach our destination, the Altizers! It was 10:00 in the morning and Karen had a feast prepared for us, which energized us for an exciting snowball […]
