The Honeycomb Medley Basket

We have chosen to fill our hives with honey and wax,
Thus furnishing mankind with the two noblest of things
which are sweetness and light.

- Jonathan Swift, 1667 - 1745

A Beekeeper's Basket

If in ancient times honey was considered the "nectar of the Gods," beekeepers were revered as understanding the magical life of these noble insects. Their knowledge and patience was considered profound and they were held in high esteem. The Greeks believed that the Muses, daughters of Zeus, conferred the gifts of sweet speech, poetry and eloquence upon men by sending bees to touch their lips.

Well, in this household, we call our Bee Man (Chris), the "bee whisperer" and he is a pretty sweet talker, so he would have done really well in Athens. So lets all don our coveralls and kiss some bees.

Actually all you have to do is open one of these honey filled jars or light one of these beeswax beauties to enjoy the magic of these curious creatures. And you don't even need a veil or a smoker.

The Honeybee's Dance

On Block Island our bees often battle the breezes to bring home the honey. When a scout bee returns to her hive, she waggles her body in a special honeybee dance to communicate to her co-workers the directions and distance to the nectar-laden blooms she has discovered.

You can be a special scout bee for family and friends by discovering this assortment of sweet nectars. The recipient of the Honeybees Dance basket will never have to do a jig for their honey because it will always be close by.
