Part of my purpose of making videos is to spread a bit of joy in the world, I'm delighted to hear you picked up on that. However, the main reason I post videos is to show just how important bees are to our very survival, and why we should not just kill them out of ignorance. I have been rescuing bees from being needlessly destroyed for over 9 years now, and hope to continue to do so for many more years to come. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace. Mr. Ed
I can imagine Mr Ed standing out there in the yard looking at all the sticky drums. He sings a little tune and the bees descend like Cinderella's songbirds to clean them.
I LOVE how you let the bee's clean up the barrels and stuff, far better than you ever could! That's how they did it many years ago, and that's how it should still be done. What a prosperous adventure!! Well done!!! XOXO

@thegrim418 the government isn't a business. It doesn't work like a business and isn't run like a business. It has a different function. He government isn't for-profit corporation and its function is completely different. The "budget" for a government has very little in common with a family or company "budget." They are very different things.
The government also does pay back its loans. If it didn’t the U.S. dollar would plummet like a rock. It just gets a higher line of credit every year to take out newer, bigger ones.
That separator pays for itself over and over. I need to get one. That is a lot of honey left in the cappings. Very nice. Thanks for the video. God bless.
Oh its so nice when you finally get one, me and a friend went in on one together to make it a little less hard on the wallet lol it was a purchase i dont regret
My father had a manual one when I was child for his two/three hives, he was just a hobby bee-keeper. I do remember playing with it later, just winding the handle and watching it spin imagining I was extracting honey. Now I have actually seen an electric one in action I am able to fully comprehend the labour it must have taken all those years ago extracting the honey and collecting the wax for re-using. I also have a greater appreciation of the farmers of bees and work involved for these bee-wranglers and farmers extracting the honey and getting that beautiful natural wax!

Love these! It is so satisfying to see all that hard work pay off! I used to look at the prices of honey and think whoa that’s a lot for a jar of honey! Then I found your videos and realized y’all work your behinds off to make it! I will never complain again lol Thanks for sharing!
Yes and imagine how much he invested in all of these machines. Another bee keeper (who does it mostly for a hobby) said him and his wife calculated that they make 50 cents an hour each with all the work they do bee keeping and making honey. That's not much. I don't think they use all these fancy machines though.
Nah not pricey at all I believe if the states used honey as sugar replacement there would be 50 percent less diabetics and 30 percent less obese people. Attention disclaimer “This is sarcasm” no canceled for me only big ups
All farming is a large investment, a huge ammount of work, low return, and huge risk! If you think honey production is crazy, look into the dairy industry. Those folks do row cropping, milk production, and beef production, all at once. Not to mention 3 separate marketing and insurance dances. Combined with the government payments paperwork, epa compliance, equipment force, maintenance, veternarians, trucking, and last, TAXES!
I was telling my mom about you and the Abby and she was interested in watching this video. Her comment was, I'm glad nothing goes to waste." Can't wait to see what happens next, 🥰

Oh thank you, Mr. Ed, for ending this sad week with an uplifting video! I've been feeling pretty down last couple of days, but your beaming smile, and the sight of those bees drinking up that honey at the end made me feel better.

Thank you Jesus. If you would have done the cappings when you did the removal of the honey from the frames, we wouldn't have another wonderful video to watch. Thanks Jeff for all your hard work that goes into making all of these videos. I'll bee watching.
That's the part I love best, Jeff, watching the bees working to clean everything up and hearing them. Thank you for uploading. God bless and see you soon.
The process you have from bringing supers in, extraction, rendering and bottling is perfect for you. You and Charlie bring supers in, the gang comes together for one long wonderful day of extracting and then you can work on the rest alone at your own pace. The equipment and setup in the honey house is awesome. I know it's a lot of work but from processing through cleanup, you make it look easy. Blessings to you. Thanks for sharing
This is the happiest guy I've seen since COVID hit and made us all miserable... Just watching him smile all of the time makes me feel better. Plus, he's an EXCELLENT beekeeper!! 👌

Sir, I have never seen such a production. I watched my first of your videos an hour ago watching you take a HUGE hive out of the bottom of a trailer. That was amazing! I am so impressed at your fearlessness around all those bees. I’ve been highly allergic to all bees since I was 9 years old, so I’m pretty sure I could not do what you are doing. Thank you so much for sharing your skills and your work with us all. 🙏🏻

Thank you. I never had an interest on bee keeping but I was curious about the kind of process that a experienced bee keeper would have to go through. Its actually quite fascinating and the equipment is amazing. I'm sure its not cheap but the methodology and sequence was something I never thought about but now that I've seen it, I'm very impressed. I'll have watch other videos later on as I'm curious about the raw honey storage and usage of the recovered wax but thank from a viewer in Hawaii.

This was the first time i have watched your videos. I watched the previous video and this one together. So I got the view of the complete procedure of harvesting the honey from beginning to end. They were super interesting videos. I learned a lot about beekeeping and harvesting honey. I have always loved honey even the first time I tasted it. My mother worked in a country grocery store, where the owner bought some of the products he sold from the neighboring farmers. A few of them kept a lot of bees to help with their crops and to sell the honey as part of their income. So my mother had access to fresh produce and of course freshly harvested honey. She brought some jarred honey and honeycomb chunks home. She gave me a piece of the whole honeycomb when I was about 4 yrs old (I am 76 now). The memory of biting off a piece so impacted me that when I close my eyes and think about it, I can still feel the delicious sweetness running down my throat. Then chewing on the wax, to get the rest of the honey out, was truly heaven to this 4-yr. I was hooked. As I got older, I learned some facts about honey. The one that was God-inspiring, was that honey NEVER spoils no matter how long it is kept. Your videos are interesting. I was only going to watch these 2 because bees are extremely fascinating to me. But, you have just received a new subscriber because of the way you have presented the information regarding the bees and your beekeeping. Now I have to go to the store and get me some honey and comb. 😄 Looking forward to watching more of your videos. God bless. ✝️
Hello Mr Ed. I haven't had internet for quite a while. I've always been tickled watching you with one of Gods gifts to his people. So I'm back. I've been benge watching all morning. I'm glad your still around. God bless Deb
I want some of those hapiness pills!!! I know for sure that you put a big smile on my face!!!! You really clean those drums really good!!! I bet you clean the supper dishes real good too!!! Wink!!!😉
You are in luck, I can tell you exactly how to get those "happiness pills," develop a strong faith. So happy to hear that watching my adventures puts a big smile on your face, that's one of the best compliments I could receive. Invite me to dinner, and I'd bee happy to wash the supper dishes. By the way, thank you so much for the T-shirts you sent for the Three Amigos. Until the next time, God's peace Mona. Mr. Ed
Mr Ed!! I couldn't stand it anymore and had to become a paid member of the channel! Keep making these great videos. I actually had asked you this question yesterday on another video you posted but now I see my answer here in this video.. Is has to do with running into barrels and THEN running the cappings into the spinner vs going straight into the spinner with everything. We are expanding our honey house as we have about 200 hives and 700 shallow/medium supers we run through. Right now we are using 2 Harmony Farms slit uncappers and an old 60 frame dadant extractor than we can fit about 95 shallows at a time for a 10-13 minute spin. We are dropping that into a sump with a screen to catch the big chunks and then pumping it into our holding tank or barrels. We then do a final filter into the bottler tank when it's time. It's labor intensive to say the least. I love the way you do things but would like to dump straight into the spinner from the extractor and then pump into the holding tanks; skipping the 3 day barrel portion . You said in your video that would be a bottleneck so my assumption is that the spinner would not be able to keep up with what's coming out of the extractor? Sorry for the long post/question, but I really value your opinion on all this and would love to hear from someone who done this before!!!
Awesome that you have become a member on top of being a subscriber for more than a year, thank you very much for that. Please do me another favor, reach out to me on my email, oscelata@gmail.com I'd really like to talk with you. God's peace. Mr. Ed
That is a lot of Honey. You have a great setup. I enjoyed the video. My girlfriend told me about you, a man called Mr. Ed. She said he is always happy. You really are.
I can't explain how satisfying it was to watch him not leave any honey to waste in the barrel. I used to watch cooking shows growing up, and I was poor as a kid but blessed at the same time. It was a nightmare watching how much batter or mix or whatever people would leave in bowls just to wash down the drain lol.
@@aquatikcamel4034 I can tell you didn't grow up in the most lavished of conditions either, you really get it. You don't leave the meat for later, you show that you're grateful for it in the moment and consume it completely, even if you're too full. When you don't know when you'll get another nice chunk of meat like that, there's no way you could bring yourself to waste it and you literally can't afford to. Cuz meat is rare isn't it? You know, we probably both grew up on stretch meals. And I don't even need to describe to you what a stretch meal is either! I can remember a time when getting a full glass of juice was like....almost dangerous lol! Even now as a grown man I always feel like my mother is gonna walk in the room and say, "nope, you ain't drinkin' all the juice up cuz that's all we have, you get half a cup" lol.
@@_The_Traveler_ I didn't grow lavishly but at the same time , I didn't get to the lowest level of struggling to get daily meals but I hope you and your family are doing better brother. I remember the days we used lanterns and those irons you put coal in to iron your clothes tho
2 things 1: that blowtorch trick is just plain ingenious 2: the way honey looks watery when sped up just freaks me out for some reason lol Love your vids man
This is so interesting to watch! As a kid I only learned how to make honeycomb/wax candles, not where it came from.. I think I still have it to this day and I bet it will still smell slightly of honey!

I love how you move that awkward barrel lifter around, when the honey barrels are wheeled and probably way easier to move to the lifter! I respect that!
The drum lift is a "must have" in our operation, those drums weigh over 700 pounds when they have honey in them.

Well, if you would like to buy some of our honey, I'd be happy to send you some. The cost is $10.00 for a one pound, plastic bottle, and $9.00 for shipping. If you want more than one bottle, the shipping cost is still $9.00 for up to 2 bottles, but each bottle is still $10.00. As soon as I get your check, I will send it out. Make the check out to St. Joseph Abbey but send the letter to: Mr. Ed 75376 River Rd. St. Benedict, La. 70457 If you'd like, I'll even sign the bottle. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks for watching. God's peace Alex. Mr. Ed

If the government was as efficient as you and the bees, we'd have a budget surplus. We can only wish Jeff.
You're right about that. First point being he doesn't get to just expand his budget and borrow money when he can't afford something.
@@thegrim418 I mean... I get the point, but you literally just described a business loan.
@@werk62 Fair point, though if he doesn't pay it back he's held accountable. The government never is.
@thegrim418 the government isn't a business. It doesn't work like a business and isn't run like a business. It has a different function. He government isn't for-profit corporation and its function is completely different. The "budget" for a government has very little in common with a family or company "budget." They are very different things.
The government also does pay back its loans. If it didn’t the U.S. dollar would plummet like a rock. It just gets a higher line of credit every year to take out newer, bigger ones.

seems like you can modify and old washing machine to do the same thing. it even has a pump to pump out the separated honey
@@justinlalugski2083 - I guess you could. I don’t think that pump would last long.

My father had a manual one when I was child for his two/three hives, he was just a hobby bee-keeper. I do remember playing with it later, just winding the handle and watching it spin imagining I was extracting honey.

I have the greatest admiration for all the men and women that serve our great country and defend my freedom. There is not a day that goes by that I do not include all of these selfless men and women in my prayers, and I will add your son to that list. God's peace Sussette.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff, thank you so much. 🥰🙏🏻
New beekeeper here. I had a hive gifted to our hobby farm. I will follow you! Nice, thank you.
The world needs as many beekeepers as it can get, thank you for taking up the challenge...and thank you so much for following along. Looking forward to hearing from you again soon, and remember, I post a new video every Friday. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
You can't help but love Jeff for so many reasons !
Your smile and your voice is as sweet as the honey you’re harvesting 😊❤
Thank you Jesus. If you would have done the cappings when you did the removal of the honey from the frames, we wouldn't have another wonderful video to watch. Thanks Jeff for all your hard work that goes into making all of these videos. I'll bee watching.
HELLO!!! Good Morning Mr. Ed!!! Wonderful to see your smiling face!!! God bless!!! 💛
Mr. Ed is single, I thinkhe is going to be a Monk.
That's the part I love best, Jeff, watching the bees working to clean everything up and hearing them. Thank you for uploading. God bless and see you soon.
Mr. Ed I like the process and the Bees helping out. like they call them Busy Bees.
Its really good that very little goes to waste from the Bee product. Good job Mr Ed
I love the second day t-shirt!!!
Giving back to the bees is my favorite part of harvest.
I really enjoy the rendering process...it's so satisfying.
The process you have from bringing supers in, extraction, rendering and bottling is perfect for you. You and Charlie bring supers in, the gang comes together for one long wonderful day of extracting and then you can work on the rest alone at your own pace. The equipment and setup in the honey house is awesome. I know it's a lot of work but from processing through cleanup, you make it look easy. Blessings to you. Thanks for sharing
This is the happiest guy I've seen since COVID hit and made us all miserable... Just watching him smile all of the time makes me feel better. Plus, he's an EXCELLENT beekeeper!! 👌

Mr. Ed
Sir, I have never seen such a production. I watched my first of your videos an hour ago watching you take a HUGE hive out of the bottom of a trailer. That was amazing! I am so impressed at your fearlessness around all those bees. I’ve been highly allergic to all bees since I was 9 years old, so I’m pretty sure I could not do what you are doing. Thank you so much for sharing your skills and your work with us all. 🙏🏻

Another great video Jeff! Thanks for sharing.
Finally someone that actually shows how it's done
I show a lot of "how to's" on my channel, wax processing, honey processing, bee removals, and a lot more.

Mr. Ed
Thank you. I never had an interest on bee keeping but I was curious about the kind of process that a experienced bee keeper would have to go through. Its actually quite fascinating and the equipment is amazing. I'm sure its not cheap but the methodology and sequence was something I never thought about but now that I've seen it, I'm very impressed. I'll have watch other videos later on as I'm curious about the raw honey storage and usage of the recovered wax but thank from a viewer in Hawaii.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you in the future, it's a real blessing for me to have new viewers. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 450 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them.

Mr. Ed
Letting nature get back from what you are taking is a cool way to do things. I can really appreciate that.
It's all part of the balance, they give to us, and we give back to them.Thanks so much for watching, and if you are interested, I'd greatly appreciate you checking out some of my other 450 videos on bees. And if that is not enough for you, each Friday I post a new one. Looking forward to hearing from you again. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff I am for sure going to go look at more. I already checked out some of your videos.
That machine that moves the drums is fantastic! I bet the first time you used it it felt like your birthday, Valentine's Day, and Labor Day all in one! 😂😂😂
It's incredible to me how hard you work to make sure nothing is wasted. Those girls work hard on their hives, but you're working hard as well! Absolutely Amazing!

I love that wax and honey separator
Wow, do I ever appreciate my "local" honey even more! No more Costco/grocery store honey. I order it or buy it locally!!
I lost you there for a bit, but I was so happy to see you in my choices of videos! I kindly remember your kindness towards me and my family. So glad to see that you are so happy and active still! God bless you with much love and joy !
You are the Walter White of honey.
I'm just glad I don't need a mobil honey house. Thanks for watching. God's peace.

But the taste of honey is what is really amazing. Thanks for watching. God's peace.

Mr. Ed
This was the first time i have watched your videos. I watched the previous video and this one together. So I got the view of the complete procedure of harvesting the honey from beginning to end. They were super interesting videos. I learned a lot about beekeeping and harvesting honey.
I have always loved honey even the first time I tasted it. My mother worked in a country grocery store, where the owner bought some of the products he sold from the neighboring farmers. A few of them kept a lot of bees to help with their crops and to sell the honey as part of their income. So my mother had access to fresh produce and of course freshly harvested honey. She brought some jarred honey and honeycomb chunks home. She gave me a piece of the whole honeycomb when I was about 4 yrs old (I am 76 now). The memory of biting off a piece so impacted me that when I close my eyes and think about it, I can still feel the delicious sweetness running down my throat. Then chewing on the wax, to get the rest of the honey out, was truly heaven to this 4-yr. I was hooked.
As I got older, I learned some facts about honey. The one that was God-inspiring, was that honey NEVER spoils no matter how long it is kept.
Your videos are interesting. I was only going to watch these 2 because bees are extremely fascinating to me. But, you have just received a new subscriber because of the way you have presented the information regarding the bees and your beekeeping.
Now I have to go to the store and get me some honey and comb. 😄
Looking forward to watching more of your videos. God bless. ✝️
Hello Mr Ed. I haven't had internet for quite a while. I've always been tickled watching you with one of Gods gifts to his people. So I'm back. I've been benge watching all morning. I'm glad your still around.
God bless
Deb
And I'm delighted you have returned, thank you, and thank you for your blessings as well. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I want some of those hapiness pills!!! I know for sure that you put a big smile on my face!!!! You really clean those drums really good!!! I bet you clean the supper dishes real good too!!! Wink!!!😉
You are in luck, I can tell you exactly how to get those "happiness pills," develop a strong faith. So happy to hear that watching my adventures puts a big smile on your face, that's one of the best compliments I could receive. Invite me to dinner, and I'd bee happy to wash the supper dishes. By the way, thank you so much for the T-shirts you sent for the Three Amigos. Until the next time, God's peace Mona.
Mr. Ed
Mr Ed!! I couldn't stand it anymore and had to become a paid member of the channel! Keep making these great videos. I actually had asked you this question yesterday on another video you posted but now I see my answer here in this video.. Is has to do with running into barrels and THEN running the cappings into the spinner vs going straight into the spinner with everything. We are expanding our honey house as we have about 200 hives and 700 shallow/medium supers we run through. Right now we are using 2 Harmony Farms slit uncappers and an old 60 frame dadant extractor than we can fit about 95 shallows at a time for a 10-13 minute spin. We are dropping that into a sump with a screen to catch the big chunks and then pumping it into our holding tank or barrels. We then do a final filter into the bottler tank when it's time. It's labor intensive to say the least. I love the way you do things but would like to dump straight into the spinner from the extractor and then pump into the holding tanks; skipping the 3 day barrel portion . You said in your video that would be a bottleneck so my assumption is that the spinner would not be able to keep up with what's coming out of the extractor? Sorry for the long post/question, but I really value your opinion on all this and would love to hear from someone who done this before!!!
Awesome that you have become a member on top of being a subscriber for more than a year, thank you very much for that. Please do me another favor, reach out to me on my email, oscelata@gmail.com I'd really like to talk with you. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Another video, another smile on my face. Thanks Mr. Ed
That is a lot of Honey. You have a great setup. I enjoyed the video. My girlfriend told me about you, a man called Mr. Ed. She said he is always happy. You really are.
Whoever says "honeymaking is easy", had no clue. It is a lot of purposeful hard work. Thanks for the video.
The cleaning of the wax separator I found oddly fulfilling. Cleanliness is next to Godliness. :)
I can't explain how satisfying it was to watch him not leave any honey to waste in the barrel. I used to watch cooking shows growing up, and I was poor as a kid but blessed at the same time. It was a nightmare watching how much batter or mix or whatever people would leave in bowls just to wash down the drain lol.
I get ya , you gotta lick your plate clean
@@aquatikcamel4034 This, and the secondary rule was, "If you don't finish your food now you'll be seeing it later"
@@_The_Traveler_ That's why you never leave meat for later
@@aquatikcamel4034 I can tell you didn't grow up in the most lavished of conditions either, you really get it. You don't leave the meat for later, you show that you're grateful for it in the moment and consume it completely, even if you're too full. When you don't know when you'll get another nice chunk of meat like that, there's no way you could bring yourself to waste it and you literally can't afford to.
Cuz meat is rare isn't it? You know, we probably both grew up on stretch meals. And I don't even need to describe to you what a stretch meal is either! I can remember a time when getting a full glass of juice was like....almost dangerous lol! Even now as a grown man I always feel like my mother is gonna walk in the room and say, "nope, you ain't drinkin' all the juice up cuz that's all we have, you get half a cup" lol.
@@_The_Traveler_ I didn't grow lavishly but at the same time , I didn't get to the lowest level of struggling to get daily meals but I hope you and your family are doing better brother.
I remember the days we used lanterns and those irons you put coal in to iron your clothes tho
Excellent work👍👍👍. Thanks for sharing
2 things
1: that blowtorch trick is just plain ingenious
2: the way honey looks watery when sped up just freaks me out for some reason lol
Love your vids man
Nice job Mr. Ed!!!!!
Man you sure do really good with the volume of bees you have Mr.Ed!! You have very nice equipment , very professional 👍
It's brilliant when you have it speeded up it's so funny 😆 keep up the good work and take care love from England
This is so interesting to watch! As a kid I only learned how to make honeycomb/wax candles, not where it came from.. I think I still have it to this day and I bet it will still smell slightly of honey!

My sweet Lord, that is a lot of beeswax. I'm just trying to imagine how many candles you could make with all that beautiful beeswax.
I wound up with about 160 pounds, but there is some honey weight with it as well. God's peace Jim.
Mr. Ed
I think you have it down to an art. You could get Rooster to 'stretch' you a little but you'd be walking on your hands so that's a no go. Have a Jesus weekend, Thanks and GBWYou!
The way you cleaned out all the honey/wax from the drums was so satisfying
I thought this machine had knives in it. I looked at the video you posted when you first received it and noticed them present back then.
I does have knives for it, but for my uses, they are unnecessary so I don't keep them in there anymore. God's peace Phillip.

So to support our American Economy, I really wish I could buy some from you.
Well, if you would like to buy some of our honey, I'd be happy to send you some. The cost is $10.00 for a one pound, plastic bottle, and $9.00 for shipping. If you want more than one bottle, the shipping cost is still $9.00 for up to 2 bottles, but each bottle is still $10.00. As soon as I get your check, I will send it out. Make the check out to St. Joseph Abbey but send the letter to:
