Hey you guys, it's Carolyn from homesteading family. Now I've been preserving food for almost two decades,

and there are times I wish I could go back to my younger self and tell her what I now know. I wasted so many

hours sweating over hot canners and using untested recipes that resulted in wasted food. But while I can't go back in time, I can share

what I've learned over the years with you guys. So I'm hosting a free live online training

coming up on Thursday, June 19th, all about preserving. I'm sharing the lessons I wish I'd learn sooner, how to decide which preserving methods

to use when, and the basic steps to my top seven methods, and what you can do right now

to increase your food security.

So register now at homesteadingfamily.com forward slash podcast

dash live training. That's all one word. Now don't worry if you can't actually make it to the

live event, remember, it's online. You don't have to show up in person. But if you can't make it

even online on Thursday, June 19th, there will be a replay,

but you do have to be registered for this free event even to get access to the replay.

Well, hi there and welcome to this week's episode of the pantry chat, food for thought.

This week I'm really excited to have a special guest on to talk about a topic that I don't

really know a whole lot about, neither Josh or I do.

And so we are introducing Kayaley here from um the honeystead who knows

all about beekeeping and we're going to be talking about getting started with beekeeping so welcome

and thanks for coming thank you guys for having me i absolutely love talking about bees bees. So I'm excited. Let's dive in.

This is the perfect time to start talking. All right. And, you know, I don't know, it seems like a little

off season to be talking about this right now. But we, I don't know, we'll see what you have to say

about that. Maybe you don't agree with that idea. But I know for Josh and I, planning happens this time of year. So if we're going to bring in a new top, a new, you know, project on the homestead.
