Bee-in’ green

There are several good reasons to consume more honey and less sugar. Not only can eating local wildflower honey help combat seasonal allergies, it can also be green. By substituting honey for sugar, you help reduce the environmental impact of the United States’ sugar industry on the Everglades. Plus, you can buy honey from Woodland-based Sola Bee Farms, which sells sustainably harvested honey, uses solar power to run its processing facilities and reuses its harvesting byproducts. Besides, since honey is sweeter than sugar, you don’t have to buy as much of it. Sweet, huh? Visit http://solabeefarms.com for more information.
