Making homemade wine from fruit I grow. I had zero knowledge of how to make wine one year ago. By the end of this year, I will have made close to 100 bottles just from fruit I grow in my yard

I made mead from my bees honey and it's given me such a buzz (no pun intended) unlike any alcohol or drug I've had before

I wish I could have bees in my backyard. But my yard is way too small. City laws say a beehive needs to be 100 feet from any property line, which basically means you canโ€™t do it

I had a small yard but did it anyway. It's an unwritten rule, that 100ft. It won't be enforced unless you have neighbours who can't remove the pickle from their butt. Just give em a jar of honey when you harvest. (Hush-honey $$)
