The Harvest Foods Inc. Beekeeper Circle is a program that encourages people in the community to plant wildflowers on their property to create bee sanctuaries.
Participants in the program receive a plaque and certificate, and they are asked to watch the sanctuary grow throughout the year without cultivating it until fall.
The bee sanctuaries are an important part of creating the honey for the Farmhouse pantry, and the public will vote on the best of the Beekeepers Circle and the top three winners will receive honey at the Farms Harvest Family picnic and Pie eating contest,
To become a member of the Beekeeper Circle, you must plant a bee sanctuary on your property.
The sanctuary must be at least 100 square feet in size and must contain a variety of wildflowers that bloom throughout the spring and summer.
The beekeepers circle bee-friendly wildflowers will be given to you once you sign up.
Once you have planted your bee sanctuary, you will become the Beekeeper Circle participant.
You will need to provide your name, address, and the size of your bee sanctuary.
Harvest Foods Inc will then send you a plaque and certificate to commemorate your participation in the bee sanctuary.
The honey is harvested from bees that pollinate the bee sanctuaries planted by members of the program.
The Beekeeper Circle is a great way to support bees and to enjoy the benefits of fresh, local honey.
