Cole Family Apiary
Can you guess what an apiary is? Well, it is a farm that raises bees!
Cole Family Apiary specializes in raising hives full of honey bees, which they can harvest to sell at farmers markets and directly (from their farm and facebook page.)
To make sure the bees have enough plants to collect pollen from, CFA also grows a small variety of vegetables like corn, green beans, and tomatoes.
Honey has a lot of vitamins and can be useful for many ailments, such as indigestion ( a sore tummy) and acne, and the Cole Family is spreading the word. Anyone valuing health and wellness can see that honey is the place to “bee.”
