We are experiencing the wettest summer ever, but the bees are making honey in between showers. It has a great tasting mix of Linden ( basswood) and Acacia ( black locust) nectars. It’s been a very crazy year for us here in Gridley Hollow. We lost 80% of our bees last fall due the drought and […]
Fall colors have arrived here in Virgil New York, along with some delicious fall wildflower honey. The trees are gorgeous this year. The days are getting shorter and the nights are getting cooler. This is a great time of year to do a little sightseeing, pick up some honey from our farm stand and visit Hollenbeck’s […]
WOW! It seems like our spring and summer are just flying by! We are harvesting out new crop of summer wildflower honey. The harvest will be substantially less that last year due to the heat and dryness of the weather, but it still is a blessing. The flavor is wonderful. A bit different than last summer, […]
Spring brings the joy of a new season of beekeeping and honey making here at Gridley Hollow. Along with the great warmer weather, we also have some unique challenges. Last week we had a bear visit one of our apiaries. He did a lot of damage to about half of the hives at that location. […]

We plan to start our fall harvest about September 20th. There will be a good supply of our smooth and creamy goldenrod/aster honey, strained and raw […]
WOW! It’s summer harvest time already! Time flew by very fast so far this year. In mid April we still had lots of snow cover and the skiing was fantastic. Then the weather changed to 80F and summer was upon us. No spring to speak of. Lots of rainy weather so far and our bees […]
Winter is a wonderful time to kick back and relax a little with a warm cup of your favorite tea, sweetened with Gridley Hollow summer wildflower honey. We are experiencing one of the coldest, snowiest winters we have had in many years. It reminds me of the first winters we lived here in the early […]
Our family would like to wish all of you a very joyous Christmas and a most prosperous New Year!
We have started to harvest the fall wildflower honey. It is a delicious mix of goldenrod and wild asters. It is available as strained or not strained ( contains beeswax pieces and small propolis pieces) and is liquid at this time . The unstrained honey will crystalize very fast, making a very smooth and spreadable product, with […]
