This month we welcome our newest vendor, Honeycomb Heroes!
After 20 years of serving in the military, the owners of this small business decided they wanted something to work on that would keep their family sticking together. With (only) 300 hives, the local business is able to pay great attention to detail and practice organic methods in treating their hives. It’s their goal to provide only raw honey and 100% local beeswax.
Why choose to buy local honey? Besides helping our local economy grow, honey has great health benefits. When you purchase local honey, you’re building your immune system and creating antibodies to help fight against those pesky sneezes during allergy season!
How?
When local bees carry pollen from flower to flower and bring it back to the hive, the honey mixes with the pollen. When you consume it, your body becomes more accustomed to the local pollen!
You’ll find Honeycomb Heroes available most days in the rear of the main building. They’re currently selling Wildflower, Orange Blossom, Pepper and Creamed Honey.
