The benefits of raw honey in your backyard
Inside Bulloch Business with DeWayne Grice
The Bees Knees Owners Web
Hannah Joy and Ed DiNello
Spring has taken the Boro and Bulloch County by storm. Pollen has covered everything and GSUs Sweetheart Circle has never been more beautiful. Along with all of this beauty and pollen are the allergies that follow. One of the best natural treatments for allergies is local, raw honey. In fact, many people boast about a wide range of health benefits derived from it. And there is a big difference from local raw honey versus store bought honey. Local honey is not pasteurized or cut with corn syrup. Also, to have the best effect from a health perspective, you want honey that was harvested from as close to your home as possible. The absolute best honey for you would actually come from your own back yard in your own beehive. However, becoming a part time bee keeper can be expensive and a lot of work. For this reason many people only dream of owning their own bee hives. Local entrepreneurs Ed and Hannah Joy DiNello have developed a business model that takes the work out of bee keeping. Their company, The Bees Knees based in Brooklet, will provide you everything you need to become a hobbyist bee keeper.
