More about Brad: Brad has lived on Sanibel for eight years and started beekeeping in 2019. He has maintained 50 hives in individual homeowners' yards, but that practice ended when Ian and then Helene/ Milton destroyed all of the hives. Now he keeps two small beeyards, mostly for rescued bees, but also to make Sanibel Honey, which is available in the late fall each year, and typically sells out well before year-end. As you will discover, if you don't already know, he loves talking about bees!
