Foraging For Fun

Buzzing with Excitement: Tour Bus Guests Forage for Fun at Cherry City Honey!

The bees weren’t the only ones buzzing with excitement at Cherry City Honey this week! We recently welcomed a tour bus full of enthusiastic guests for a special stop at our farm, where they got to experience an abbreviated version of our “Foraging for Fun” presentation—designed to inspire, educate, and send each visitor home with a little gift for the pollinators.

Inside our cozy Honeycomb Classroom, Farmer Jaime led the group through a lively and engaging mini-lesson on the magic of foraging, native plants, and the role of pollinators in our everyday lives. With her down-to-earth style and signature passion, she shared this truth with our guests:

No Dirt? No Prblem!

While we usually roll seed bombs together during our full-length program, for this particular visit, we had the seed bombs pre-made and ready to go! No need to get your hands messy—each guest received a plastic cup filled with seed bombs, making them easy to carry and plant later. These little bundles of native wildflower seeds are designed to help pollinators like bees and butterflies thrive, whether scattered in a backyard, garden, or a forgotten patch of earth.

This clean, easy giveaway still delivered a big impact—and it made for a perfect takeaway to remember their visit to Cherry City Honey.

Why Foraging for Fun?

Our Foraging for Fun program isn’t just about plants—it’s about building a deeper connection with the land, learning how to care for what God has given us, and celebrating the gifts found in creation.

Participants of all ages benefit by learning to:

  • 🌿 Deepen their connection with nature

  • 🐝 Understand local ecosystems and pollinator roles

  • 🙏 Give thanks for what God provides naturally

  • 🥗 Enjoy wild, nutritious, and flavorful foods

  • 🌎 Make simple choices that support environmental health

And with only 6% of children aged 9–13 spending time outdoors in a typical week (Children and Nature Network), offering meaningful outdoor-related experiences is more important than ever.


 

What’s Covered in the Presentation:

✔️ Benefits of Foraging
✔️ Safety Guidelines
✔️ Tips & Etiquette
✔️ In-Season Plants
✔️ Featured Local Edibles
✔️ Helpful Resources for Beginners

Our programs are ideal for garden clubs, homeschoolers, faith-based groups, nature enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to reconnect with the natural world—while having a little fun along the way.

She says, ‘I thought, why not? I had nowhere to be. But by the end of that talk, I was hooked. I couldn’t stop thinking about the bees, how they worked, how important they were. I went home and started researching. And the very next week, I called my husband, Gary, who was out of town at the time. I said, “Guess what? We’re beekeepers now. We own three hives!”’
