Spring has sprung

March has been a busy month for us here at the Plan Bee Farm Brewery. We have been working outside through the warm sunny days and the many Nor Easters. Even though the calendar is telling us Spring is here, the winter chill has not lifted from Fiskhill, NY.

On the farm this month, we built 5 raised beds from recycled lumber, we have cleared brush and briars from a 20' x 10' spot behind the house and we have begun weeding and raking up the flower bed. There have been morning chats about a fire pit, hammocks, bee hives and a chicken coop. The evening temperatures are still landing somewhere in the 20's so we will have to wait for the soil to thaw before we can start working the dirt. 

On the business side, we have registered Plan Bee Farm Brewery as a LLC and our EIN from the IRS is on it's way. Next steps will be to get our license through the New York State Liquor Authority before filling out the application to become one of the very first New York State Farm Breweries. Thank you Governor Andrew Cuomo for the legislation to make this whole venture a little easier. For the full farm brewery bill, click here.

We have a Facebook page now as well, check it out here. I just posted over 50 new photos of becoming Plan Bee Farm Brewery.
