Local Clemmons NC Honey
As I was driving home from my friends house today in Clemmons North Carolina I saw a sign for local honey, yep you know me well had to stop and get some.
Heres the lovely bee keeper he started his hives 3 years ago when someone from his church offered him bees! He figured why not he was retired. He states that he is getting more each year but that it's hard work and hot:-)
I was intrigued by the difference in the color he said the darker one is made from spring blooms on the poplar trees. The lighter local flowers, he has a beautiful yard full of them ;-)
His pretty yard the bees live behind the barn
Pretty country roads
Yummy honey and butter toast, our daughter loved it,

DeleteThis is just the kind of thing I do, stop for local food products. My brother in law raises bees as a hobby. He loves it. I can't imagine buying store bought honey anymore-e raw honey is just so good.

DeleteLocal honey is great for people with allergies too! The bees make a natural antihistamine for the local blooms so the rule is a spoonful of local honey a day keeps the sneezes away :)
