Beeyond the Hive Colorado Honey

A friend of mine stopped by my honey house the other day as I was packing up the truck, heading for another festival to sell some of the sweet, sticky stuff.  “Why do you even bother with those festivals anyways?  You have to pack up all your products, spend the money on fuel, go through the headache of setting up the tents & tables and you never know what sort of unpredictable weather you might be in for…not to mention all of the CRAZY people you have to deal with ALL DAY LONG…”
 
To him I say “pish-posh” & I truly hope he see’s this blog & how happy my “peeps” are to stock up on their yummy honey year after year.
 

Yep, a little honey love makes the world go round!

 This is one of our most favorite customers “Crazy Elaine”.  We affectionately call her “Crazy Elaine” because she is crazy about our beeswax lotion.  So much in fact, she comes to the same festival EVERY YEAR just to see us & stock up on her favorite lotions.  We love Elaine so, so much & her enthusiasm & positive energy alone is worth the trip to Crested Butte every year.
 
This girl was the cutest “hustla” I’d seen in awhile.  She loved honey, but didn’t have any money so, to use her words she offered to “walk my puppy for a pounder.”  How could I deny such a cutie pie?

 
These lovely ladies were lovin’ the beeswax candles.
 
And this is my Mama supporting her favorite daughter (sorry Jacy, but you had to find out sooner or later).
 

All in all, it was a fabulous festival & I can’t wait to do it all again next year.
 
I’ll even bring my puppy back just in case the cutie pie hustla comes back.  I fully support young entrepreneurs!
