The Beekeepers Association of Southwest Florida (BASF) joined the national effort to bring AWARENESS to the plight and challenges which face our gentle honey bees and the beekeeping industry.

The National Honey Bee Awareness Day (a.k.a. National Honey Bee Day), is the first ever day completely dedicated to Honey Bee Awareness from a national effort.  This event will be tailored to educating and connecting with the community with the goal of harnessing and multiplying the efforts which our local bee associations already make in their communities through this national combined effort culminating on this single day.

Considering all the important work performed by the honey bee, it was long overdue to have a day which was dedicated solely to the Honey Bee.
