Honey Bees & Cherry Blossoms

Honey Bees Love Spring Time, and So Do I

It’s spring time in the Mid-Columbia, and I keep finding myself drawn to the honey bees so busy on the local blooms. I feel so lucky to live in what some call the “fruit bowl of the nation”. Last Saturday I visited Middleton Organic Orchards, where Lori was kind enough to just let me wander around and hang out with the honey bees. What a treat for all the senses. The humming of the bees, the beauty and fragrance of the cherry orchard with all its beautiful blossoms. The beautiful blue sky and warm sunshine. I could have stayed there all day! And if that wasn’t enough of a treat, Lori sent me home with fresh, home baked cherry danishes and a jar of organic apple butter from Middleton Organic Specialty Foods. Thanks again Lori!
