NATIONAL HONEY BEE AWARENESS DAY

What’s the Buzz?! Why today is National Honey Bee Day! Let’s celebrate and show our appreciation for the hard-working honeybee, who works so hard to produce the liquid sugary treat that both bees and humans love so much.

Speaking of hard-working, did you know that many bees have to travel 55,000 miles to produce just one pound of honey? To get that pound of honey, those bees need to gather nectar from two million flowers. A single bee will gather just a 1/2 teaspoon of honey in its lifetime. After all of this hard work, honeybees deserve this special day of recognition.
