Don’t you just love that places that proudly boast, “Georgia Grown”? We couldn’t agree more. Which is why when we have the chance to highlight these local spots and small businesses, we jump at it. Especially when you can also get a front row seat at how everything is grown/made/produced right in one spot. This particular honey garden in Savannah is not at all what you would expect to find, but the experience is truly rewarding.

One of the main highlights of visiting Savannah Bee Company is being able to enjoy a bevy of products that come straight out of nature.

Bee Garden Tours are available to the public from March to October on a scheduled basis—which means that walk-ins are not usually the best route to go.
