LONG CREEK
APIARIES CLOSED FOR BUSINESS and GMO CROPS?
Many of you have visited the Long Creek Apiaries Website
to find David Winters is claiming he is out of business and is claiming GMO
crops have contributed to “extensive losses” of Winter’s honey bees…….GET ME A
VIOLIN…..David Winters stole your money and he can’t refund it or send you your
bees, so a new excuse his borne to cover his nefarious activity(ponzi like scheme):
From Long Creek Apiaries Website:
“Due to extensive
colony losses due to several hundred acres of Gmo soybeans within flying
distance of our colonies, we will not be shipping any packages or queens this
year of for the foreseeable future. We
were able to deal with the mites and hive beetles but we haven’t figured out
how to deal with genetically modified crops that are now almost
everywhere. This is the worst disaster
we have seen in fifty-two years of beekeeping.
It is with much regret and sadness that we must close Long Creek. It is very much like losing a child or family
member. Beekeeping information will be
maintained on this site for a period of time.
Thank you everyone for your support.”
REALLY?! Nothing about the money he owes for the past 4 years.......

Also, I will be happy to answer any questions you may have about how my honey is produced......my email address: riverbee at:

HONEY GIFT JARS!
These golden 4 oz glass jars filled with Rush River Gold™ Wildflower Honey are great gifts! These little gems are a replica from the 1800's and are known as 'Muth' jars. These jars have an engraved bee skep hive on the front and a cork stopper with the words ' Pure Honey' stamped in the cork. I heat shrink and seal the cork stopper (not shown), and tie them with my label, Rush River Gold™, and colorful strands of rafia. These jars also make awesome wedding or shower gifts!
HONEY GIFT JARS!
This is an 8 oz, 1800's replica glass 'Muth' jar filled with Rush River Gold™ Wildflower Honey! Like the 4 oz replica, I heat shrink and seal the stamped 'Pure Honey' cork stopper (not shown), and tie with my Rush River Gold™ label and colorful strands of rafia!

My Solar Wax Melter!
My first solar wax melter! I built this last October to melt all the wax cappings and wax scrapings i have stored in my freezer for the past 6 years. I built the box to fit the window. It was a labor of love plus a lot of non Disney language, (like aw fooey), along the way while building. I am a good carpenter, but not a tinner (my brother is, I could have used his help!) The window was a defective window I saved from when we replaced the windows in our home. Beeswax melts at about 160 degrees. The wax is heated and bleached naturally by the sun; filtered through hardware cloth, window screening and paper towel, to a pan below. This will give me very clean wax for making lip balm or candles,or giving away to hunters with bowstrings or fishers with fishing rods. I put an oven temperature gauge in the box to keep track of the heat. Too much heat will destroy the color and properties of the wax once it has melted. It was about 70 degrees today and a little cool, but this wax began to melt within 1 hour.
HER MAJESTY, THE QUEEN.....
The queen bee, without her the hive will not survive. Note the worker bees surrounding her in a circle with their antennae touching her. This is a form of communication.
