Summer Chores and Honeybees

Our son, Xander, loves the farm life!  I'm sure you'll see him many times over the course of our journey here at Homeschool On the Range.  If you love his work, click on the Xander tag at the bottom of this post to find more!

After canning lots of pickles, our cucumber vines finally burned up.  Yay!!!  So I started taking down the fences that they were growing on.  Most of our vegetables are gone now, but we still have a lot of okra and green beans!

My brother has decided to start welding and working on a forge.  He starts a lot of projects, and finishes some of them.  If he finishes this one, I will put up another picture.

 This is inside a bee hive. These are our bees. They make honey.

This is the wax. 

My brother takes care of the bees.  He made a mess in our kitchen.

These are my goats.  They are noisy and small.  They are Nigerian Dwarf goats.  I give them fresh water and food everyday.  They can eat leaves off trees, and grass, and poison ivy, but they are picky about what they eat.
