Share the Buzz about Honey Bees! Honey bees and other pollinators are responsible for one out of every three bites of food we eat, yet US honey bee colonies are declining at an annual rate of 30% or more. Any way you look at it, that’s an unsustainable equation for a reliable food supply. Help us raise awareness about these amazzzzing little insects and all that they do for us. We'll have local honey vendors, observation hives, and bee experts on hand to educate customers about the life of the honeybee.
