The Honey Farm: A Novel by Harriet Alida Lye Pdf

Lily King meets Patricia Highsmith in this slyly seductive debut set on an eerily beautiful farm teeming with secrets. The drought has discontented the bees. Soil dries into sand; honeycomb stiffens into wax. But Cynthia knows how to breathe life back into her farm: offer it as an artists’ colony with free room, board, and “life experience” in exchange for backbreaking labor. Silvia, a wide-eyed graduate and would-be poet, and Ibrahim, a painter distracted by constant inspiration, are drawn to Cynthia’s offer, and soon, to each other. But something lies beneath the surface. The Edenic farm is plagued by events that strike Silvia as ominous: taps run red, scalps itch with lice, frogs swarm the pond. One by one, the other residents leave. As summer tenses into autumn, Cynthia’s shadowed past is revealed and Silvia becomes increasingly paralyzed by doubt. Building to a shocking conclusion, The Honey Farm announces the arrival of a bold new voice and offers a thrilling portrait of creation and possession in the natural world.

The Importance of Honey Production by E. R. Root Pdf

Taken from the sixty-fifth annual report of the Massachusetts State Board of Agriculture, this is an analysis of the importance of honey in the early twentieth century. It discusses how the demand for honey sharply increased in Europe with the outbreak of the First World War, and explores what this means for American bee-keepers. It also looks at other aspects of the industry, including honey-plants and apiary management. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in the history of bee-keeping, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on Bee-keeping.

Honey A vital understanding of the health effects of this renowned natural food Honey is among the most famous and widely available natural food products in the world, and its flavor profiles are well understood.
