Honoring World Honeybee Day:

Concerned about our loss of bees, Morgan Freeman converted his 124-acre Mississippi ranch into a bee refuge. He hired gardeners, filled acres with clover, planted hundreds of flowering trees, purchased 26 hives, and has turned himself into a beekeeper.

On the third Saturday in August, we honor the honeybee.

My husband and I studied beekeeping and visited our mentor's apiary a few years ago. 

Totally immersing, relaxing, and energizing.


Without the honeybee, we are no more.

Please honor the honeybee by being pollinator friendly and mindful not to use toxic weedkillers.

The honeybees and all life on this Earth, our home, thank you.
