Tucked away on one-quarter acre in Reno is Hidden Valley Honey and the home of Chris and Karen Foster. While still living in Carmichael, CA in 1997 their property was invaded by a swarm of bees. They decided to turn a problem into a profit and as a result beekeeping became a hobby for the family. When the Fosters moved to Reno in 2002 they brought 8 hives with them. The hives now number 70 and the whole family works at taking care of them and the various aspects of the honey business.
