Here at the Nature Nate’s Honey Co. farm, we’re celebrating National Honey Month for 30 un-bee-lieveable days in September. To sweeten the festivities, we’re thrilled to honor the incredible work of the National Honey Board and its launch of the Honey Saves Hives program.

Honey bees are responsible for more than 35% of the foods we eat (not to mention the honey we enjoy), and they need our help!

For the month of September, the National Honey Board is partnering with Kashi, Justin’s, and Frönen to raise money for honeybee research. Each of these brands uses honey in their products, and each will be making a donation in September to an organization focused on honeybee health.

Honeybees are crucial to our food system, because they naturally produce honey and pollinate more than 90 different crops, including apples, avocados, melons, broccoli, cranberries, and more. So, when you buy a product with honey, you’re supporting beekeepers and their efforts to keep honeybees healthy. You’re also strengthening the connection between our pollinators and our planet’s entire ecosystem.
