Firestone, Colo., January 28, 2013 – The National Honey Board (NHB) announced that it has produced two new educational honey brochures for 2013 entitled Honey – The Journey from Hive to Bottle and Honey – Discover the Versatility.

Honey – The Journey from Hive to Bottle is a four page, accordion style brochure that takes the reader through the journey of honey production, beginning with the humble honey bees. Topics include pollination, honey extraction, honey varietals and honey’s versatility, among many others. This brochure is beautiful and makes the learning process both fun and informative.

Honey – Discover the Versatility is a six page, staple bound brochure that celebrates honey’s versatility both inside and outside the kitchen.
