Mark your calendars for National Honeybee Day on August 17th! Honeybees do so much for us, so they have their own special day.
There are some special ways to celebrate the honeybees on this day. One of the ways could be to meet a local beekeeper and learn why they started taking care of honeybees. Some beekeepers start taking care of honeybees because their family has been raising honeybees for many years. Others start beekeeping because they wanted to learn something new. Every beekeeper has a story!
Another way that you could celebrate the honeybees on this day would be to make a recipe that uses honey as an ingredient. One of my favorite recipes that uses honey is Honey Rhubarb Ice Cream.
You could also check how many of the foods that you eat often come from plants that honeybees help pollinate. The National Honey Board also has a list of ways you can Help the Bees.
Have a awesome time celebrating all the ways that honeybees help us each and every day!
