When I was much younger, an elderly friend from church showed me a beehive he had in his backyard. I was fascinated and instantly wanted to start beekeeping. I was in the military at the time, which made beekeeping impossible. Fifteen years went by before I retired; I made a few twists and turns in life for another twenty years. Finally, I returned home with my wife and son to the small city of Mason Michigan. We bought an old house, settled in, made the house our home, and the though of beekeeping returned. After 35 years, I became a beekeeper and the owner of Urban Wild Honey.
