In the summer of 2002, a small swarm of honeybees chose our backyard as their new home. Despite growing up as the son of a commercial beekeeper, I had no equipment, 2 small children and a pet. I decided to kill the swarm with a can of Raid. With remorse from killing the colony, I purchased the basic-necessities to manage a hive of bees then contacted the local Fire & Police Departments. Two days later we started receiving frantic phone calls and "Wessels Family Honey" was born! President, Josef Wessels We started this business with the greatest hope of giving everyone in our family LOCAL Wessels Honey. Well, that dream changed somewhat expanded and grew into something we never ever imagined!
