Green Christmas Craft Sale



Dad (Lorne) and I spent the day selling our liquid honey, creamed honey, beeswax candles and body products - lotion bars, healing cream, muscle/joint warming cream and lip balms.

There's lots of Christmas shopping going on in November and December so it's a good time to earn some cash.

If you're a beekeeper, whether it's a living or a hobby, you've got bills to pay.

And keeping bees isn't cheap.

This table at a church craft sale cost $30.00 which is very reasonable.  No commissions on sales either.  Can't beat that kind of deal.

It's always enjoyable to meet customers face-to-face and also answer questions about bees.

Sales were good too which really helps.
