The big, beautiful Island of Hawaii has so much to offer, from magnificent nature landscapes and crisp sea breezes to local, fresh produce and a wide range of activities. There is something that lures travelers and expats from all over the world to this dreamy island, but what sometimes gets overlooked is the vast collection of organic produce and products.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s take it back to the start. If it weren\u2019t for bees, the ecosystem would seize to exist. That\u2019s why the Big Island of Hawaii takes so much pride in their honey farming. The Hawaii Honey Festival takes place in September. During September, there is also a selection of bee-related events and educational programs.<\/p>\n
The Honey Festival is festive in nature with arts and crafts, music, food, honey tasting competitions and beekeeping demonstrations, but aims to communicate a very serious message according to the Big Island Beekeepers Association\u2019s secretary: \u201cto give an awareness to the public of how important the bees are to agriculture, especially on this island where you have so many farmers\u201d.<\/p>\n
