Elderberry isn’t just for winter. Of all people I should know that.

Instead I slacked off and guess what? I have a cold! I went all fall and winter with without picking up any germs!

Summer can be surprisingly hard on the body — travel, festivals, allergies, heat, poor sleep, stress, and constant activity can all challenge the immune system. I've done 7 school presentations and the Lilac Festival......what was I thinking? I should've been dosing daily.

That’s why many people continue taking Elderberry syrup year-round. Elderberries are rich in antioxidants and naturally support the body’s immune and inflammatory response while helping nourish overall wellness. 🌿🫐

Summer support may include:
• Seasonal allergy support
• Immune resilience during travel & events
• Antioxidant support from sun & heat stress
• Respiratory and sinus wellness
• Daily wellness support for busy seasons

Think of elderberry less as a “sick season remedy” and more as a nourishing wellness tonic for every season. 💛🐝

NEW specialty honeys now in the shop:

🍯 Cotton Honey
Light, buttery, and exceptionally smooth with delicate floral notes. Cotton honey is known for its creamy texture and mild sweetness that makes it perfect for tea, toast, biscuits, or everyday use.

🍯 Saw Palmetto Honey
A rich Southern honey with deep caramel-like notes and a slightly earthy finish. Darker and more robust, this honey is loved by those who enjoy bold, complex flavors.

🍯 Tupelo Honey
One of the most sought-after honeys in the world! Tupelo honey is silky, buttery, and beautifully sweet with hints of vanilla and floral nectar. It’s famous for resisting crystallization and has an incredibly smooth finish. Tupelo is considered a "super honey" due to its high levels of antioxidants, antimicrobial properties, and potential to support prostate health.

I hope to see you tomorrow for one last shopping day before festival weekend!

Spring Outdoor Essentials

Hello Friends,

Spring is here—and every year I get asked 2 important questions.
"How can I keep wasps and yellow jackets out of my yard?"
"How can I bring beneficial bees to my yard?"

Well, I have the answer for you!

Rope Wasp Deterrents
Wasps begin scouting nesting spots in spring. Hang these near porches, patios, garages, sheds, barns, or doorways to help discourage nests before they start. I use these in my bee yard and near the house to keep the unwanted guests away. They work!

🐝 Mason Bee Houses
These gentle native bees are incredible spring pollinators for flowers, gardens, fruit trees, and vegetables. If you’re in Zone 6b (my local customers), right now is an ideal time to put one up. If you can't have honey bees, have mason bees!

Simple spring formula:

Keep wasps away.
Bring pollinators in.
Enjoy your yard more.

Available now in-store.
Mason Bee Houses also available on our website. Get yours today.

Thank you,
Amy & The Bees

It makes me happy to see dandelions. Not only do the bees enjoy them, so do I.
There are so many ways to use them.
What's your favorite way? (Pesticide free, of course)

"The Purdue Extension Office noted there are numerous benefits for humans, too. All parts of the dandelion plant are able to be consumed in some form."

How exactly are dandelions classified? What some consider a yellow flower, others consider a bothersome w**d.
