sugar honey

Post by Kurt Bower »

I spoke with a woman that was asking questions about hummingbird feeders. Apparently she was feeding the honeybees at her feeder and enjoying it. She assumed that she was helping the bees and was pleased that they were around to pollinate her garden.
I had to ask her not to feed the bees because some poor slob of a beekeeper in the High Point area was unknowingly making "honey" from sugar syrup. I told her it was best to not feed the bees so that the beekeeper could then sell a pure product.
Hmmm..... I wonder what my honey is made from? :oops: :roll:
