Maine man creates a 45-acre pasture to feed his ‘millions and millions’ of bees

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • May 24, 2026

The nectar started flowing in Sangerville about three weeks ago, and the honeybees are busy. On a tour this week of his hives on a hill at Nubik Ranch, Paul Borowski noted the millions of bees were already better organized than they had been in April as they came and went, carrying pollen. He’s cultivated the pasture to support his commercial beekeeping operation, which includes producing honey for sale and beehive colonies and queens that he raises and sells to other beekeepers.
