Thanksgiving for our bee sponsors.<\/p>\n

In spring 2021, we had given away a one-year bee sponsorship<\/a> as a surprise for all colleagues. Now there was again a small attention of our bee colonies. Different kinds of honey, from summer blossom & rape to robinia & lime, could be received by each employee.<\/p>\n

The care & harvest of our bee colonies took over here the beekeeping Hirrle from the Uckermark.\"\"<\/p>\n

In the northeast of Brandenburg, only 50 km from Berlin, lies the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Schorfheide-Chorin, founded in 1990. As one of the largest nature reserves in Germany, it provides a habitat for an abundance of plant and animal species. The flora found here also forms the basis for the extraction of the highest quality honeys.<\/p>\n

During the honey harvest, the bees are carefully removed from the combs.<\/p>\n

The extraction of mature honeys is ensured by not removing the combs from the bee colonies until at least two-thirds of the honeycombs are capped.<\/p>\n

After removing the wooden frames, the wax covers are removed from the combs with a special fork. Subsequently, the thin honey is spun out by means of a honey extractor while it is still warm (so-called cold extracting).<\/p>\n

In addition to the sponsorship in the spring, we had also included seeds for a flower meadow for all hobby gardeners. What became of it? Convince yourselves…<\/p>\n
