We had the sweetest time today visiting the preschoolers at St. Andrew’s School 🐝💛🖤
They were so polite, attentive, and full of curiosity!
Moments like this are why we do what we do—bee education matters, and sharing it with the next generation is so important to us at Summertime Bees.🐝🖤💛🍯
Thank you for having us!

Still thinking about this past weekend.. When I tell y’all I love meeting y’all I truly do. I am wondering about my Sisters from Illinois who were on their very first “Sister Trip”. They told me depending on how they liked each other after if there would be a second one. I hope I see them again for their second trip.
I wonder about my “cousin crew”. I hope they made it home safe and the one cousin doesn’t forget her corn and bread earrings next year 🤣
I am thankful my sweet lady I met from my hometown emailed me to let me know she made it home, and that she loved her honey in her tea and had her tiny Jesus on her nightstand.
I need the rest of y’all to check in like her🤣
I really do love the people we get to meet.
