Our mission was simple: to celebrate Strawberry Season and spread love for the beautiful red fruit and encourage everyone to support the bees. We shared strawberry plants with customers, urging them to plant somewhere special and find joy in nurturing them throughout summer. As customers carefully chose their spot in nature, we felt proud, knowing these little beauties would satisfy berry lovers later on. But we mustn't forget the lovable honey-makers who make strawberries possible. Don't just stop at planting strawberries; try these delicious recipes from our blog. When you feed one bee, you give back more than sweetness – you foster community spirit and inspire others to "bee inspired."

Organic is Best
It's strawberry season! Homegrown strawberries are pesticide-free and taste much better than store-bought ones. They're vulnerable to pests and diseases since they grow close to the ground. Conventional farming relies on chemicals, but sustainable practices like crop rotation provide an alternative. We encourage using fewer chemicals. Enjoy fresh, juicy organic strawberries without pesticides. Don't miss out on this year's crop! Share your photos with us on Instagram!
