Restaurant brands are looking for ways to deepen their connection with
their guests, given that so many touchpoints are lost today. Storytelling
is a powerful way to forge that relationship. Sharing the narrative of how
a beloved staple—honey—goes from hive to table, builds a pathway between
nature, people, and the planet. The story of beekeeping, an age-old
artisanal practice, adds remarkable dimension to your menu. Beekeepers are
a vital part of the narrative, as they are the stewards of honey bees,
essential creatures whose importance goes well beyond delicious honey.
POWERFUL POLLINATORS

the bees, so the honey bees can overcome the stressors they face today and
produce honey—as well as do the pollination work for other plants,” says
Danielle Downey, Executive Director of Project Apis m.]
“Beekeepers work at supporting good habitats and good nutrition for the
bees, so the honey bees can overcome the stressors they face today and
produce honey—as well as do the pollination work for other plants,” says
Danielle Downey, Executive Director of Project Apis m.
“Sustainability is really important in the honey industry,” says Zac
Browning, a beekeeper with Browning’s Honey, based in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
“It’s not just about honey. When you’re talking about one third of our diet
that depends on honey bees for pollination, what could be bigger than
that?” In fact, through pollination, honey bees help produce many of the
plant-based foods prevalent on today’s menus – from apples to avocados – in
addition to nuts, spices, and even our beloved cup of coffee.
But it’s the honey they create, and that beekeepers harvest, that bees are
perhaps best known for. “Honey is so special,” says Downey. A teaspoon of
honey, she says, is the labor of thousands of bees. Beekeepers harvest the
excess honey that bees produce, while ensuring these essential creatures
have more than ample supplies to sustain themselves year-round.
A LABOR OF LOVE

Beekeeping has been a part of Mark Jensen’s family for generations. He has
community support, with neighbors allowing him to keep bees on their
properties so he can provide the best forage for his bees.
Beekeepers are passionate stewards of honey bees. It’s never been more
challenging to keep healthy bees, says Downey. Still, beekeepers are
finding solutions and learning more about honey bees to adjust to issues
such as viruses, habitat loss, pesticide exposure and more. “We can start
changing how we support bees. We just have to keep at it,” she says. And
that’s what beekeepers are doing. Browning, whose family has been in the
bee business for almost 100 years, explains that “producing honey is not
just a craft. It’s actually an art. It is really something that we learn
over time.”
Mark Jensen, a beekeeper with Smoot Honey Company in Power, Montana,
compares beekeeping to the culinary arts. “Beekeeping is an artisanal
craft. A labor of love,” he says. Beekeeping has been in his family for
three generations. “The honey that we produce is really nice, light
colored, good flavor. We’re really proud of that.”
It’s beekeepers’ stewardship of these tiny creatures that not only helps
maintain the world’s food supply through pollination, but ensures the
availability of versatile, all-natural honey. From drinks to dressings,
desserts and more, honey serves as a clean-label flavor and functional
ingredient that operators can be proud to feature on their menus.
