We’ve had a few customers reach out to us via email over the past month to make sure all was well in the Honeyrun world. After several years of weekly blogs, we have fallen out of the routine and have left you all hanging. I realize in today’s world of covid troubles, this can be worrisome when you suddenly don’t hear from folks for a while. I blog today to let you know we are doing well over here in the Honeyrun world.

Isaac has been busy pulling Fall honey supers and feeding the bees protein. We haven’t had a huge Fall harvest this year, mostly due to colder temperatures (we think).

Over what is typically the “Pumpkin Show break” (the Show was cancelled this year) we took a trip to Davis West Virginia and spent some time hiking in the Dolly Sods. The kids were champs and hiked 5 hard miles each day. We packed plenty of sweets and treats to make it more fun. (Or as Eden says, “to bribe us.”) She is correct. We also took a horseback riding trip on the 3rd day, which was the highlight of the trip.

On Monday the folks from the Pickaway County Soil and Water Conservation District came out to shoot some footage to create a video about local agriculture for the annual “Ag Day” field trip for fourth graders. Typically all 4th graders in the county go to the Pickaway County Fairgrounds to learn about agriculture in the Spring. This year it will have to be virtual, so we helped get some footage about bees and honey production.

There is one more Outdoor Worthington Farmer’s market on October 31st, 8-12. On November 7th we’ll move back indoors to the Shops at Worthington Place from 9-12. For more information check out the website: https://www.worthingtonfarmersmarket.com/

We are happy to announce you can now find a wide variety of our honey, soap, beeswax candles, salves, lip balms, and honeysticks, at the Red Stable in German Village. Located at 223 E Kossuth St, Columbus, OH 43206, they also offer Curbside Pickup. But who could resist going into this adorable store? The front door alone begs attention.

We hope this blog finds you all happy, healthy, and safe. Thank you to those who have checked in on us, and we promise to continue to blog when time allows.
