Pollinator Week is an annual celebration in support of pollinators and pollinator health.
Did you know that there are over 200,000 animal species that serve as pollinators? Of the 1,400 crop plants grown, almost 75% depend upon pollination, including coffee, almonds, many fruits and chocolate!
We all know that our bee friends pollinate, but so do other animals and insects. These include birds, bats, butterflies, moths, flies, beetles, wasps and small mammals.
We’ll be sharing more pollinator facts, including how to create a pollinator-friendly habitat, on our social media channels (@BeeMaidHoney on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest). Bee a honey and give us a follow (if you don’t already).
All Honey is Not Created Equal
BeeMaid is True Source Certified meaning it is fully traceable, ethically sourced, and rigorously tested for Authenticity.
Over the years honey has become a prime target for those looking to illegally broker and import it into North America. This issue is just one of the reasons strict traceability and authenticity guidelines must be adhered to in order for honey to be True Source Certified.
Bee Maid Honey was the first honey packer in Canada to become True Source® Certified and we source honey from our owners – providing true hive to home traceability.
By purchasing True Source Honey, you help the Canadian beekeeping industry by supporting honey producers who are supplying legitimately sourced, pure authentic Canadian honey.
Have you had a chance to try our BeeMaid Amber Honey? Our beekeepers’ Amber honey is a late season honey with a rich, distinct flavour. Its bold sweetness makes it the perfect ingredient in your sauces, marinades, dressings and baked goods.
