check out our 2024 honey harvest
We’re hooked on homegrown honey! RFRK partners with George Brown College Hospitality and Culinary Arts Professor and Ontario Beekeeper, Patrick Secord, to host a buzzing bunch of busy beehives. One of our favourite times of the year is when the summer ends and we get dozens of jars of hyper-local honey to share amongst the staff, all thanks to our bee friends!
Fun fact: Hyper-local foods come from a very small geographical area, like neighbourhoods. In our case, it comes from our very own backyard!
This year, we even got some chunk honey. This is a mix of honeycomb & un-bee-lievably delicious liquid honey in one jar! The comb adds a fun, chewy texture that’s enjoyed right along with the liquid gold itself. Most importantly, it gives you a piece of honey in its most natural form and shows you where it comes from. It’s a delicious little lesson in nature that you can taste and see.
Bees really are nature’s sweet saviours! To learn more about how important it is to cherish them, check out the buzz about RFRK’s bees & when we celebrated World Bee Day.
