Daniel and Rose Gillett started beekeeping back in 2015. The first time I observed bees I was unsure. I was afraid of being stung. And it was terrible for the first 5 minutes or less. However, then, I began hearing their humming sound. Then they started bouncing up against my veil and landing on my bee suit.

It was then that those little creatures captured my heart.

I was stunned that they weren’t aggressive. It was quite the opposite. They were very curious (which is why they bump your veil.)

They just wanted to figure out who I was. It was then I realized how relaxing working with bees can be.

See, you have to move slowly when working with bees. And all you can hear is their beautiful sound which has a way of relaxing you.
