Honey!! We have our honey extracted from the hives now and in bottles. Available in two sizes 80z for $4.00 or 1 lb for $8.00.
New Honey Product available from our farm made by our bees!
We have only have one round honeycomb and 12 squares left. This has been very successful. Get yours today and discover what everybody is so excited about!!
Everyone is talking about our new honey at the markets and I have tried it myself and it is amazing!! We also have an 8 oz round container available for the same price.
This honey, a sample of nature's purest and most sweet food, has not been altered in any way, having been distilled from nectar and put in its container by the bees themselves. Use it on biscuits, muffins, toast, cereals, fruit, sandwiches~or just eat plain, as a wholesome candy. The delicate wax may be eaten too, or chewed like gum.
Although we will not have our bottled "Sweet Georgia Gold" available until the middle of July, we have a unique product from our honey bees. We have half combs of honey available using the Hogg method. They are specially priced at $13.95, other sites have them priced at $19.95. You will get 8 oz round or 12 oz square of honey with an edible comb. This honey is totally untouched by human hands.
Order yours today while supplies last. Please specify round or square.
Mr. John A. Hogg is the inventor of Half Comb Cassettes.
"The Halfcomb cassette is prefabricated in one piece clear plastic with comb foundation embossed on the bottom. The foundation is beeswax coated. The box-like cassettes are designed to function as modules in modified standard 4 3/4" comb honey supers; they interlock "piggyback", leaving bee access slots, to form columns of 10 each."
We now can process credit cards for your purchases using the Square!

Summer Veggie AuGratin
Why this recipe works:
Layering summer's best vegetables into a gratin can lead to a memorable side dish-or a soggy mess. Juicy summer vegetables like zucchini and tomatoes can exude a torrent of liquid that washes away flavors and turns the dish squishy and soggy. We wanted a simple, Provençal-style vegetable gratin, where a golden brown, cheesy topping provides a rich contrast to the fresh, bright flavor of the vegetables.
To start, we chose our vegetables. The typical combination of tomatoes, zucchini, and summer squash won out (eggplant was too mushy and bell peppers took on a steamed flavor). To eliminate excess moisture, we baked the casserole uncovered, after salting the vegetables. Salting worked like a charm to both season and dry out the zucchini and summer squash, but proved insufficient to deal with all the tomato juice. While we could remove the watery jelly and seeds from the tomatoes, the jelly was crucial for full tomato flavor. We moved the tomatoes to the top gratin layer, which allowed them to roast and caramelize. The roasting not only eliminated moisture but also added flavor, especially when drizzled with an aromatic garlic-thyme oil. Finally, for more complexity, we added a layer of caramelized onions between the zucchini/squash and tomato layers and sprinkled the dish with Parmesan bread crumbs before baking. (less)
Serves 6-8 as a side or 4 as a light main dish
The success of this recipe depends on good-quality produce. Buy zucchini and summer squash of roughly the same diameter. While we like the visual contrast zucchini and summer squash bring to the dish, you can also use just one or the other. A similarly sized broiler-safe gratin dish can be substituted for the 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Serve the gratin alongside grilled fish or meat and accompanied by bread to soak up any flavorful juices.
Ingredients
6tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1pound zucchini, ends trimmed and sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices (see note)
1pound summer squash (yellow), ends trimmed and sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices (see note)
2teaspoons table salt
1 1/2pounds ripe tomatoes (3 to 4 large), sliced 1/4 inch thick
2medium onions, halved lengthwise and sliced thin pole to pole (about 3 cups)
3/4teaspoon ground black pepper
2medium garlic cloves, minced or pressed through garlic press (about 2 teaspoons)
1tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves
1large slice white sandwich bread, torn into quarters
2ounces Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup)
2medium shallots, minced (about 1/4 cup)
1/4cup chopped fresh basil leaves
Instructions
1. Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees. Brush 13- by 9-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon oil; set aside.
2. Toss zucchini and summer squash slices with 1 teaspoon salt in large bowl; transfer to colander set over bowl. Let stand until zucchini and squash release at least 3 tablespoons of liquid, about 45 minutes. Arrange slices on triple layer paper towels; cover with another triple layer paper towels. Firmly press each slice to remove as much liquid as possible.
3. Place tomato slices in single layer on double layer paper towels and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt; let stand 30 minutes. Place second double layer paper towels on top of tomatoes and press firmly to dry tomatoes.
4. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add onions, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened and dark golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Set onions aside.
5. Combine garlic, 3 tablespoons oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and thyme in small bowl. In large bowl, toss zucchini and summer squash in half of oil mixture, then arrange in greased baking dish. Arrange caramelized onions in even layer over squash. Slightly overlap tomato slices in single layer on top of onions. Spoon remaining garlic-oil mixture evenly over tomatoes. Bake until vegetables are tender and tomatoes are starting to brown on edges, 40 to 45 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, process bread in food processor until finely ground, about 10 seconds. (You should have about 1 cup crumbs.) Combine bread crumbs, remaining tablespoon oil, Parmesan, and shallots in medium bowl. Remove baking dish from oven and increase heat to 450 degrees. Sprinkle bread-crumb mixture evenly on top of tomatoes. Bake gratin until bubbling and cheese is lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with basil and let sit at room temperature 10 minutes before serving.
