Chicago's Urban Honey & Pollinator Celebration at the Chicago Botanic Garden highlights the remarkable story of rooftop and community garden beekeeping in one of America's largest cities. Chicago's urban beekeepers produce distinctive linden, clover, and urban wildflower honeys that are gaining attention from local chefs and artisan food enthusiasts. The event features hive demonstrations, honey tastings, mead pairings, and educational programming on pollinator-friendly urban gardening. Illinois state apiarist representatives discuss colony health, local regulations on urban beekeeping, and the Prairie State's broader apiculture industry.
