Preparing for Tatton RHS show
It was so hot, some of the show plants had to be kept in the house.
RHS Tatton. Everything unloaded and ready to stage.
Carole and Helena starting the exhibit
The complete exhibit.
It was strange that the BBC only filmed the back of the exhibit. We wondered if it was 'political correctness' even though Helena researched Native American culture to ensure we did not cause offence.
Carole did an amazing job.

Honey harvest
As we have a special 'BEE' opening, I have taken some honey off the hives for sale. Normally I leave most of the honey on for the bees.
