Jennifer Santiago spotted an article from Claudia Miller in the Keynoter, and wanted to come out to ask Bees N The Keys some questions. After a few short emails, everything was set for her visit. She came down from Miami with a videographer to ask us the same questions everyone else does. Are the bees ok? Yes the bees are fine. After a brief explanation that (C)olony (C)ollapse (D)isorder, or CCD, is unpredictable, uncurable and uncauseable, we spoke about our bees, our business, and things were good. Unfortunately to get a buzzing bee sound byte, we had to apply a little too much smoke to one hive. After Tomat, the camera man, caught a sting on the hand, and Jennifer got one on the leg, it was about time to wrap that portion of the interview up. Note, bees are sensitive to smell. Hand lotions, even applied to places other than the hands, will irritate bees.We left the bee yard, and traveled to a scenic location for a little Q&A session. After a half hour or so there, we went to see our observation hive at Crane Point Hammocks in Marathon. Here we spent about a half hour with some light questions and answers while getting some decent footage minus the stings. After that, we traveled to our processing plant on Cudjoe where we demonstrated our extraction and filling process. Then we wrapped the shoot, said our goodbyes, and the interview was over.
