World Bee Day is an excellent opportunity to reflect on the role these extraordinary insects play in our ecosystem. Bees not only produce honey, one of nature's greatest treasures, but also are invaluable pollinators, crucial for agriculture and the production of all natural foods. World Bee Day is also a moment to encourage action to protect bees and promote sustainable agricultural practices that provide them with a safe environment. Let us remember that without bees, our world and the biodiversity that fills it will never be the same. On this occasion, we have a gift for you - a recipe for chicken, with honey, of course! Enjoy your meal!
