What threats do honeybees face today?

Honeybees face threats such as pesticides, habitat loss, parasites, and diseases, contributing to declining bee populations. These also contribute to the loss of real honey.

How can I help honeybees in my community?

Supporting honeybee conservation efforts can be done through bee-friendly gardening practices, avoiding harmful pesticides, backing local beekeepers, and advocating for pollinator-friendly policies, as well as supporting and buying Real Honey and Raw Honey from beekeepers you know!

How do honeybees communicate?

Honeybees communicate through intricate dances like the waggle dance to convey information about food sources to their hive mates. Once they alert their hive mates, they can travel to where they find pollen and nectar sources for natural honey!

Why are honeybees important for agriculture and ecosystems?

Honeybees are vital for pollinating crops and maintaining biodiversity, playing a crucial role in food production and ecosystem health.

What is the lifespan of a honeybee?

This question often arises from curiosity about the lifecycle of honeybees, including the different roles bees play within the hive and their average lifespan as workers, drones, and the queen. Worker bees typically live for about 4 to 6 weeks during the active foraging season but may live longer during the winter months. Drones, which are male bees, live for around 8 weeks on average, while the queen bee, the reproductive female, can live for several years, with some queens living up to five years or more under optimal conditions.

How far can honeybees travel from their hive?

Honeybees typically forage within a radius of about 2 to 3 miles from their hive, although they can travel further if necessary. The foraging range can vary based on factors such as the abundance and quality of nectar and pollen sources, which helps provide natural honey, as well as environmental conditions.

Do all bees make honey?

No, not all bees make honey. Honeybees (genus Apis) are the primary species known for producing real honey. While some other bee species may store small amounts of nectar, they do not produce natural honey in the same quantity or manner as honeybees. Raw Honey production is a unique behavior found predominantly in certain species of honeybees

Why do honeybees swarm?

 Honeybees swarm as a natural means of reproduction and colony expansion. When a hive becomes overcrowded or conditions are optimal for reproduction, the queen bee and a portion of the worker bees leave the hive to establish a new colony elsewhere. Swarming helps alleviate overcrowding and ensures the survival of the species. Beekeepers may manage swarming by providing ample space within the hive or by artificially splitting colonies to prevent swarming.

Can honeybees recognize individual humans?


Honeybees are not known to recognize individual humans in the same way that humans recognize each other. However, they can learn to associate specific scents, such as those of beekeepers or individuals who frequently interact with them, with certain outcomes, like receiving food or encountering a threat. This learned behavior is more about associative memory rather than recognition of individual humans.

How is honey produced?

Bees collect nectar from flowers, store it in their honey stomach, and then return to the hive to regurgitate and evaporate the liquid to create raw honey.

Can diabetics consume honey?

Diabetics should always consult their doctor for medical advice, but we do suggest using raw honey in moderation, as it is still a form of sugar that can affect blood sugar levels.

What are some culinary uses for honey?

Raw Honey can be used as a natural sweetener in beverages, baked goods, marinades, dressings, and even as a topping for yogurt and oatmeal.
