I took a tour of a local nonprofit called Earth Links. They provide a work program for people who
are homeless and low-income to learn skills and create Earth-friendly products
that sustain people and the planet. (yup-took that straight from their website) They
make some amazing products including lavender lotion bars, lip balm, soap, bookmarks,
bird feeders and so much more. Most of
it they grow in their garden. They also
produce their own honey and let me tell you it is truly amazing. They me do a taste test while I was there and by far the real
stuff was so much better. Yes, the stuff
you get at your grocery store is most likely not real. Do not get my wrong there is some honey in
there but it is so processed and they love adding other things to it. The real local stuff is the best. You can taste all the flowers. It is also great for folks with
allergies. It tastes like candy it is good for you.
