04 Nov First Time at the Honey Farm
Today ReBel Ventures packaged 570 ReBel Bars. We are currently making our weekly deliveries to our neighborhood stores. Also, the crew is working on a new granola bar label that should appeal to our customers. It has honey combs on it, representing the natural honey we use to make the bars. ReBel Ventures gets this honey fresh out the hives from one of the finest bee keepers, Walt, in Kennett Square. His farm is located thirty one miles away from Philadelphia.
It was the first time our new employees, Nick, Corey, and Phil, went to visit the farm. Since it was raining, the bees were kept inside their hives and we didn’t get a chance to see them. However, Nick and Corey talked to Walt’s son about some of the operations that went on in the farm. This included how the bee keepers caught their bees, setting up bee traps that attracted them to a log. The log had three holes in it. One in the middle and one on each side. If you went further down the farm, you could see drawers full of hives and a lake filled with trout. Walt’s son took the time to feed the trout in order for us to see them come up to the surface. We didn’t see them come up, probably because they already had food earlier that was still at the bottom of the lake.
