Redwater Farms offers locally produced honey at several venues in Sundance and through direct sales.
Doug Carter and Rocky Courchaine, co-owners of Redwater Farms, routinely check on the viability of their hives. When they discover that a hive does not have a viable queen, they introduce one queen larva to the hive. Here, Carter selects bee larvae and then puts one larva each into the small blue cups, and then one cup is placed into each hive that is queenless.
