Prepared Goods

Second Nature Honey
Customers at my honey stand at the Indoor Market will find a wide selection of honey, honey stix and honey candy.  In particular, expect Every Day Honey for cooking and sweetening, raw clover honey and of course, my signature chocolate honey.  Small jars of gourmet honey and honey stix make wonderful stocking stuffers!  I will also have autographed copies of the honey cookbook, Honey I'm Homemade by May Berenbaum, bee expert at the U of I.  Proceeds from the sale of the book support the Pollinatarium, the outreach arm of the U of I for educating the public about pollinators. I will be assisted at this market by Samuel, an agriculture student from Uganda.
