About this event

Brunswick — Glynn County's historic port city on the Georgia coast, gateway to the Golden Isles of St. Simons, Jekyll, and Sea Island — sits at the heart of one of the American South's most distinctive coastal honey-producing regions, where the Sea Island cotton fields, maritime live oak hammocks, salt marsh cordgrass, gallberry and fetterbush-laden Carolina bay pocosins, tallow tree groves, and the unique botanical diversity of the Golden Isles' barrier island habitats create honey profiles utterly unlike any other coastal honey region in the country. Brunswick's Overlook Park on the Brunswick River hosts this fall market celebrating the Lowcountry-Georgia Coast honey tradition, featuring beekeepers from Glynn, Camden, Brantley, and Wayne counties who produce the distinctive gallberry, tallow tree, saw palmetto, and coastal wildflower honeys that define Golden Isles honey character. The Golden Isles' maritime climate — moderated by the Gulf Stream, warmer in winter and cooler in summer than the inland coastal plain — extends the honey flow season from February tallow tree bloom through late-fall goldenrod and aster, supporting colony management strategies unique to the Georgia coast. The market features a Golden Isles honey judging competition with specialty classes for gallberry and tallow tree varietals; guided marsh and hammock habitat tours connecting honey plant ecology with the Golden Isles' world-famous natural beauty; artisan honey, shrimp, and grits pairing experiences drawing on Brunswick's Lowcountry culinary heritage; educational sessions from University of Georgia Entomology on coastal Georgia bee health; and boat tours to barrier island pollinator habitats in the Cumberland Island and Altamaha River delta ecosystems.
