Thank a bee! September is National Honey Month

Welcome to National Honey Month! Celebrated each September, this is a month to focus more clearly on US beekeeping, the beekeeping industry, and the use of honey as a natural and beneficial sweetener.

California ranks third in the country in honey production, with a value of $31 million. That’s 13.6 million pounds each year!

CDFA supports beekeepers with its Apiary Board — an advisory body comprised mainly of beekeepers assisting the agency on all relevant issues.
