History

Established in 1970.

My interest in bees began as a child in the Ozark Mountains of Madison County. There were always bees around, and we hunted bee trees in the woods around the home place. Swarms were caught and kept in gums (a sort of hive made from a hollow gum log or from sawmill lumber nailed together). The honey harvest consisted of a dishpan filled with chunks of sweet honey-​filed comb. Most all the old folks kept a hive or two around the place.

Business Owner

I started Rockhouse Holler Farms to try and help folks get started in beekeeping. I’ve always had an interest in bees, and with the tough time bees have had recently, I think its more important than ever to get others interested. And the best way to do that is to get them started beekeeping.
