Did you know that bees make honey from the nectar they collect from flowers? It's amazing to think about the journey of honey from the flower to our table.
Honey is not only tasty but also good for you. It has things called antioxidants that help keep your body healthy. If you get a cut or a scrape, putting honey on it can help it heal faster.
