Haagen-Dazs recognizes the importance of bees to the creation of their ice cream. To that end they have created a wonderful bee-friendly site for you to enjoy.
Bees are so important in our agricultural production in the US. Ice cream is a particularly delicious product that relies on the honeybee.
This morning I heard a feature on NPR about how Haagen-Dazs is working to help the bees. I couldn't wait to get to a computer to see what their website had done. It's fun to see the container for their upcoming flavor: Vanilla Honey Bee
The flavor was created to support their efforts to make the plight of the honeybee more obvious to all of us ice cream eaters!
This is the tale that began in 2006 in my first year of beekeeping in Atlanta, GA. ...there's still so much to learn.

I began this blog to chronicle my beekeeping experiences. I have read lots of beekeeping books, but nothing takes the place of either hands-on experience with an experienced beekeeper or good pictures of the process. I want people to have a clearer picture of what to expect in their beekeeping so I post pictures and write about my beekeeping saga here.Master Beekeeper Enjoy with me as I learn and grow as a beekeeper.

Love it, Linda! I put a link to this on my blog as well! Time to go to the store....
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your blog. I am thinking of starting in bees. Do you have a post where you list what and where you purchased your starting equipment? What equipment did you wish you purchased right away, what did you purchase the first year, the second? I liked the video on the crush & strain method. Looking at Dadents staarting kits the foundations are plastic. I guess that wouldn't work?
