2024!
Farrell Farms
My son, eat honey, for it is good, and the drippings of the honeycomb are sweet to your taste. Also know that wisdom is like honey for you:
If you find it, there is a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off
Proverbs 24:13-14
About US
In 2022 was awesome and we collected 15 gallons from 7 hives and left plenty of honey for the bees!
In 2023 we collected 30 gallons of honey, all from "wild" or feral (FARRELL) Bees that we saved or caught locally with swarm boxes! To date we have over 20 hives from Feral bees. mostly swarming.
In the middle of August, Shanon saw a swarm of bees off our back porch heading toward our Bees yard and when I went to try to local them, I found them in a tree, all balled up. I moved them into a swarm box and mounted it to a tree - that was swarm 21 on the year! So that means we saved over 630,000 Honey Bees this year alone!
For 2024 Its shaping up to be a great year! We spread the hives across Farrell Farms, Loving Ranch and the LaFollet Ranch and got mixed results meaning Hive size and success due to a lot of rain this year. BUT the honey is amazing, we processed a couple of boxes from two hives and wow the honey quality is amazing! We will harvest the rest of our hive by July 27th. And then move some hive to fields of Snow on the Prairie for Jalapeno Honey! More to come.
Also Note this year all honey proceeds go directly to SAVE THE BEES USA, a Non Profit!
We would LOVE to hear from you! Please leave us a message and let us know you visited our website!

All Honey is NOT the Same
Foreign honey is tested and regulated through a combination of measures involving both the exporting and importing countries, as well as international standards. These measures are designed to ensure the authenticity, quality, and safety of honey. Additionally, there have been instances where corn syrup or other sweeteners have been illegally added to honey, raising concerns about its purity and authenticity.
