Great story... Congrats Anthony on all of your success so far! I had Mr. Schwager (Tony) as a teacher in high school... he was a great teacher and person, and I'm sure his son is much the same way.

Your bee's honey is wonderful, you have a gift. Thanks to parents who believe in the creative spirits of their children, and the children who are lit with a passion to create. We can learn so much from you Anthony!

leadstone, here is the instructions for making mead. I always wanted to have an apiary. It is really great that Anthony is doing this. Anyone is lucky to make a living doing what they love. I have a feeling I am going to be buying something from their store.
