Well, we finally got around to harvesting our honey for the spring, and it was finally a good harvest. The first time we harvested, a couple years ago, we had one hive and got 11 quarts. The second year, we had 4 hives, although some were young, and harvested 8 quarts. Total. This year, we've lost a few over the winter (but noticed one was gone quickly and salvaged the honey - about 10 quarts), so we currently have 2 hives. We collected 24 quarts this time!
