A great big thanks to our partners at the Gulf County Visitors Center for making this happen.
These Are A Few of My Favorite Things
I snapped this picture this morning. The sun was just peeking over the trees, and the bees were already hard at work collecting some nectar from this lavender bush. Sunshine, honeybees and flowers, and the honey that comes from this terrific trio -- these are a few of my favorite things.

2014 Tupelo Honey Festival and Harvest Update
A big thank you to Channel 7 in Panama City for a wonderful pre-festival publicity.
Also, we have been receiving lots of inquiries about the 2014 Tupelo Honey harvest. It will be VERY late this year. Our beekeeper partners will start pulling the honey supers off the hives in the next few days. It will then take another week to 10 days to extract the honey. Early indications are that it will be a low harvest in terms of yield, but we will not know until all extraction is done. Keep your fingers crossed!
