Beehives in your Garden

Beehives in the Orchard and on the Farm
We use our own beehives for pollinating the thousands of apples and pumpkins we grow at G Pops Farm. We have anywhere from 8 to 24 full hives on our property, and each hive can have up to 60,000 happy residents. In addition to making it possible to have lots of apples and pumpkins, we harvest some honey and beeswax from the hives for sale at our markets.
