Taste a Difference, Make a Difference

Supporting Love-A-Bee has meant supporting beekeepers who care for their bees and opening a market for diverse varietals, from golden clover to the dark, musty tarweed of Livermore. Together we’ve shown that healthy bees create healthy honey, and that biodiversity is not just critical for crops but something we can taste and celebrate. For more than a decade, I poured myself into this work — building a brand rooted in resilience and sharing the fragility and brilliance of the systems that sustain us, including 30% of the U.S. food supply.

Like a field resting between harvests, this is a season of pause for Love-A-Bee — a time to replenish before something new can grow. In this season of stillness, I am returning to my roots in art, shaping candles from beeswax, and rediscovering beauty in its simplest form. Each candle is made with natural, renewable materials — beeswax and reusable wooden boxes — reflecting our continued commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. They are vessels of gratitude and light, reminders that pause has its own purpose, and that from rest, new life will bloom.

And there is more to come. We will return to honey in the Spring with a whole new collection sourced from the beautiful state of South Carolina. In the meantime, learn more about the State of South Carolina and her natural beauty through the stories behind my collection.

See the Beauty, Give thanks to the bees

each shade a reflection of the pollen of the flowers the bees
have visited.

Color and nature were the spark that opened my eyes to how biodiversity — revealed in the spectrum of hues bees bring home — strengthens the hive and makes it more resilient.

This insight became the seed of Love-A-Bee. I began sourcing honeys from beekeepers who maintained wide and healthy forage, using taste and color to show that honey is not “just honey” but a living expression of flowers, season, and place. Through tastings, storytelling, and design, I invited people to experience honey as something alive and beautiful — a way to weave together art, education, entrepreneurship, and a deep commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship.
A diverse diet for bees means more beautiful flowers for us to enjoy, productive crops for farmers and unique tastes in every jar. For the bees, beekeeper, farmers and protectors of our food supply and of course, Love A Bee! Help us connect the dots and spread the joy.
