SUMMARY:Oh HONEY
DESCRIPTION:“OH HONEY in your bonnet” at Bonnet House with Joanna Diamond \nDate: Saturday\, April 25\, 2026\nTime: 10 am – 12:30 pm\n \n\nThis exciting class dives into the incredible\, edible world of honey — that precious natural food that sustains honey bees and delights us in countless ways. \nYou’ll learn how honey and honeycomb are made\, how honey travels from hive to jar\, its many health benefits and uses\, what causes honey to crystallize\, and why “organic honey” is often misunderstood. We’ll also explore the massive issue of global honey fraud and how to identify the real thing. \nWe’ll compare wildflower (poly‑varietal) honey with mono‑varietal honeys such as orange blossom or clover\, and discuss which varieties may offer greater health benefits. You’ll also get the truth about manuka honey — and whether the price tag is justified. \nDiscover just how hard honey bees work to produce honey (did you know one worker bee makes only one‑twelfth of a teaspoon in her entire lifetime?). You’ll also learn about the process of honey production\, the meaning of honey color\, and the difference between raw and processed supermarket honey. \nThe class includes a fun and surprising honey‑tasting session\, where you’ll try a variety of samples and guess whether each one is raw honey straight from the hive or processed honey from a store. You’ll taste amazing creamed honey\, whipped honey\, foamed honey\, ultra‑waxy honey\, and some of the purest raw honey in the world. \nPlease Note: Raw wildflower honey will be available for purchase after class\, along with Orchid Bee Feeders and Honey Bee Revival Kits — perfect for helping those tired little bees you may find on the ground. \n\nAbout Instructor Joanna Diamond\nBorn and raised in South Africa\, Joanna is passionate about saving honey bees and educating the public on their extraordinary importance. She spent four and a half years volunteering with a Bee Rescue & Removal charity\, has assisted with countless rescues\, is a registered beekeeper\, and has earned the title of Master Beekeeper after three years of intensive study with the University of Florida/IFAS.\nShe works closely with a South Florida beekeeper and live bee removal specialist and strongly advocates for humane removal and protection of honey bees. \n\n$30 Members • $40 Future Members
