May is in Full Bloom at WildFlyer!
Happy May, WildFlyers!
We're well into one of the busiest months here in Navasota! The BeeWeaver Honey Farm is literally buzzing every weekend as beekeepers around the state (and even some from out of state!) descend on our little slice of heaven to pick up their very own bees! This is how Jeff and Chelsea got started on this journey way back in 2014.
Be sure to check out our calendar of events below for all the fun ahead this month.
..and to cap off the month, we'll be celebrating with BeeWeaver at their annual BuzzFest event! It's a celebration of the honey bee and is an event you definitely don't want to miss.

🍓May is National Strawberry Month! 🍓
Not much beats biting into a deliciously ripe summer strawberry - and 'tis the season in Texas to do just that! In honor of National Strawberry Month, try one of these strawberry-centric pairings at home:
🍰Strawberry Shortcake + Summer Nights
Pairing similar flavors acts to enhance and highlight fresh ingredients.
Try this deliciously simple Rustic Strawberry Shortcake (https://www.onceuponachef.com/recipes/strawberry-shortcake.html) .
🌮Grilled Chicken Tacos with Strawberry Avocado Salsa + Seventeen
This pairing is the perfect way to spend the evening grilling before it gets too hot! A fun twist on a summer classic, this salsa (https://www.thehealthytoast.com/grilled-chicken-tacos-with-strawberry-avocado-salsa) also includes one of our favorite ingredients - honey!
