Join us at the Port Perry Lakefront Farmers’ Market to celebrate Pollinator Day on Saturday May 23rd from 8 am - 3 pm.

Why Pollinator Day? These essential creatures help make our meals. One out of every three bites of food exists thanks to pollinators.

Come celebrate and bring your buzzing energy as there will be something for everyone.... A pollinator-themed scavenger hunt; an interactive presentation on “The Joy of Beekeeping” with us at 10 am and 1 pm; and shopping for your favourite pollinator plants, honey products and so much more!

These gummy bears are the best!
Toddler friendly as they are not chewy and sticky. Sooo… they are not a threat to fillings or baby teeth.

They look like gummy bears, taste amazing (you can make them as sweet as you’d like) but more teeth friendly. Ohhh… I bet my dentist would be so proud now 😁🤣

If you prefer them more firm, use up to 3 tsp of agar agar. We mentioned the fruit juices we had success with so far, if the juice used is too acidic, the agar agar might not set properly.

First thing on our agenda for this year: TIME MANAGEMENT. How can we organize everything to get some extra time.

If Mother Nature will bee on our bees’ side the plan is to grow our colonies count this season. This will naturally lead to more time spent out in the field. Between 2 full time jobs, raising a 5 year old, 3 after school activities, markets/events to attend and 55 colonies (as of now) to manage, this extra needed time seems impossible to create.

So here’s what we have planned for now:
1. For those of you who live West from us, our products are available in Ajax, open Tue-Sat
2. Free Delivery Day will be on the last Sunday of the month. Unless we are away, then we will plan for a different day
3. Our porch pickup orders will be grouped:
🐝 orders received Sunday-Wednesday can be picked up on Thursday
🐝 orders received Thursday-Saturday can be picked up on Sunday. We’re more than happy to accommodate emergencies if the case may be.

We have already started our applications for the 2026 markets and events, and we will post every month where you can find us.

Let the magic of making more time begin! 😁

There are countless recipes for elderberry syrups, but we found this one to work best for us. It was the only one I found that keeps the honey unpasteurized once added to the blend and we stuck with it.

We make it once a month during the cold months and we take 1Tbsp for adults and 1 tsp for kids morning and evening.

We get our
frozen elderberries from
Second Season Farm Newcastle

dried elderberries and organic spices can be ordered online from Organic Matters

The recipe has been inspired from Medical Medium Elderberry Syrup 101

Bee armed with the most delicious remedies this flu season!

If you have started beekeeping less than five years ago, give yourself grace, there is still room to learn and fine tune your knowledge.

If you are at the beginning of your beekeeping journey or just about to start, follow our BEEKEEPING checklist each time when you need a reminder on the how and why!

Most important, always remember to have fun and enjoy the journey!
