PHYSICALLY DISTANT, BUT STILL SOCIAL.

Use #getNEKedVT on the photos and videos you're taking during this time. We want to see them.

We’ll be spinning up a contest or two to keep us all engaged and sane(ish). Stay tuned.

Cheers to bee-ing NEKed.

@barrhillgin New comb is one sign of a strong nectar flow. The bees build comb and then fill it with nectar or the queen will lay eggs in these hexagonal cells. We can tell that the comb in this picture is about a week old because of the degree of color in the beeswax as it moves along the gradient from white to light yellow to yellow as the bees walk on the beeswax, “travel stain”, and it gets colored by nectar, pollen and propolis. Everything that honey bees do is beneficial to people, plants and the land. For me, one of the wildest things is how they transform eight pounds of honey into one pound of wax.

Just about another 6-7 days for some of the best NEKed comet gazing for the next 6,800 years.

If you’re out tonight, look low and to the northwest. Out early in the morning...low and to the northeast.

Thanks for this one @snowdoghiker

Looking for some “live” music? Tune-in NEKed tomorrow night for some Dead Quarantunes from Rob Eaton of DSO fame and a few of his buddies. It starts streaming at 7p from @jaypeakresort Facebook page.

OK...so we know the font’s been reduced to a point that you might need a Sherlock-sized magnifying glass to read it, but here’s what you need to know: if you’re between St. Johnsbury and Newport tomorrow between 12:55 and 1:00PM(ish,) look up. The 158th Fighter Wing will be flying over regional hospitals in the state to salute those who are on THE front line and they’ll be making their way from Northeastern Regional in St. J to North Country Hospital in Newport during that time.

Should you find yourself near any of Vermont’s hospitals tomorrow between 12:15-1:20PM, keep an eye out. You might just see an F-35 (or four) flash by.

Yes, @blackrivermeats is just a bit south of the NEK, but we do appreciate the thought and attention to detail they put into the Cooking Instructions for their bacon.

PS- Notice there are no Microwave instructions. Subtle brilliance.

Posted @withregram • @barrhillgin It takes a team.

Three weeks ago the Barr Hill team came together and pivoted quickly to meet the changing demands of the COVID-19 crisis. This meant our production and distilling team stepping up to a new task of distilling and packaging hand sanitizer, and we couldn’t thank them enough. It also meant reaching out and teaming up with area businesses to help us reach our goal of making 25,000 gallons of hand sanitizer.

@aquaviteakombucha stepped up and is delivering us the alcohol they separate out from their Kombucha, allowing us to distill it to the appropriate proof for the hand sanitizer base.

We’ve also teamed up with @runamokmaple to help us get our sanitizer into as many bottles as possible. Their production line is set up to be able to fill different types of bottles.

Over the next 45 days, we’ll be sending almost half a million bottles of sanitizer to hospitals, grocery stores, nursing homes, first responders, and beyond. We’re proud to participate in the fight against COVID-19.

You can purchase our hand sanitizer or make a donation to a healthcare organization at our online store, www.barrhill.com/shop.
