In 2012 my wife came home with a mesh box full of thousands of bees—buzzing, swirling, a living loaf of bread—and I was terrified. Inside was a queen in her tiny cage, waiting to be accepted or attacked. I hated bees… at first.

But fascination took over. Year after year—good seasons, bad seasons, and stings in almost every place imaginable—I learned, adapted, and stuck with it. Honey somehow always made things feel right.

Now, more than a decade later, I’m all in. In late October 2025, I launched this new adventure: delivering healthy local honey with personality. No boring labels, no bland branding—just bold looks, humor, facts, and flavor.

My wife and I also run a community garden in Denver where we grow our own chilis, lavender, and herbs. She’s a Master Gardener (no big deal!) and together we’re building something fresh, snarky, and delicious for the community.
