Proud to be part of this great event

🐝✨ Sponsor Spotlight Saturday ✨🐝

Today, we’re proud to highlight Mid-Michigan Beekeepers for their support of the Michigan Honey Festival! 🍯💛

Mid-Michigan Beekeepers helps bring together people who share a passion for bees, honey, pollinators, and beekeeping education throughout our community. 🐝📚

If you are a honey lover or interested in learning more about beekeeping, their monthly meetings are a wonderful opportunity to connect with fellow bee enthusiasts and continue learning more about the world of bees and pollinators. 🍯✨

We are incredibly grateful for their longtime support of the festival and for helping keep the buzz about bees and beekeeping alive across Michigan! 💛🐝
