As the world celebrates Pollinator Week, New York State is taking steps to protect the health and well-being of its vital honey bee population. In an effort to promote sustainable beekeeping practices and support local honey producers, the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets is urging beekeepers to join the New York State Grown & Certified Program and register with the state's Beekeeper Registration. By participating in these initiatives, beekeepers can help ensure the health and safety of their honey bees, while also gaining access to valuable resources and support. This move is expected to have a positive impact on the state's beekeeping industry, which plays a crucial role in maintaining the state's agricultural ecosystem.
