🐝 SCHOOL’S BACK… AND SO ARE ALL. THE. GERMS. 🤧🦠

Backpacks are packed, lunches are made, and kids are heading back to classrooms—which means they’re also bringing home everything they’ve been exposed to.

This is the time of year when so many of our customers make Queen Bee Remedies Propolis Tincture part of their family’s daily wellness routine.

🐝 What is propolis?

Propolis is often called the bees’ immune system. It has antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant properties, and laboratory studies have found that it can help kill certain bacteria, including strep, as well as certain viruses. It’s one of the reasons I became so fascinated with this incredible substance in the first place!

Our customers tell us again and again that propolis is one of the things they reach for during back-to-school season, travel, and those months when everyone around them seems to be coughing and sneezing.

✨ A few drops. One powerful little product from the hive.

Back to school = back to propolis! 🐝💛

Dutchess County has one of the nicest fairs I’ve ever been to! It’s HUGE — around 300,000 people attend!

We had such a great week, and now that I’ve finally had a little time to decompress, I started thinking about some of my favorite things from the fair. In no particular order…

🐝 Meeting so many fantastic customers — both new faces and people who came back to see us!

🐷 The baby pigs. I’m not even kidding when I say I had to visit them several times a day.

🐮 Watching calves being born! It seemed like there was almost one born every day. So amazing to see!

🥒 The waffle pickle — cheese, hash browns AND pickles. Sounds a little weird, but it was SO stinking good!

🍎 Apple fries with caramel and ice cream. Enough said.

🎡 Seeing the smiles on little kids’ faces watching the rides and visiting the animals.

💛 And one of my absolute favorites — having so many fun conversations with customers and hearing how well Queen Bee Remedies products are working for you. I never get tired of hearing your stories!

Dutchess County Fair, you wore me OUT 😂 but you were a good one!

Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do has nothing to do with what you eat or what you put on your body.

I know I talk a lot about propolis, staying healthy, and using clean, natural products—but I also think taking care of your mind is HUGE.

This week I was at the Dutchess County Fair working 12+ hour days. It was exhausting! But no matter how busy I was, I made sure I found a little time every day to pray and meditate. One day I took a walk. Another day I found a quiet spot and just sat with a cup of tea.

Nothing fancy. Just a few minutes to be still. I think we forget how much we need that.

So here’s your reminder today: take 5 minutes for yourself. Go outside. Pray. Meditate. Take a walk. Sit in the quiet. Whatever helps you reset.

And now I want to hear yours—what’s something you do for your mental and emotional health? Maybe we can all steal a few ideas from each other. ❤️

Our Anti-Aging Cream isn’t just for your face! 🐝

We have so many customers using it on their arms, hands, chest and legs for that dry, crepey, sun-damaged-looking skin.

And lately we’ve been hearing some pretty amazing stories. We’ve had customers tell us they’ve used it on old scars, and even on skin irritated by poison ivy and poison oak — and they were thrilled with how their skin felt afterward.

Made with jojoba oil, coconut oil, castor oil, beeswax and propolis from our hives, plus vitamin E, frankincense and carrot seed oil.

Rich, simple ingredients for skin that needs a little extra love. 💛🐝

Did you know that every day at the Dutchess County Fair, at 9:55 AM—right before the gates open—the entire fairgrounds stop?

Every vendor stands still, and together we listen as someone sings the National Anthem. 🇺🇸

With all the hustle and bustle of the fair, it’s such a special moment. It’s honestly my favorite part of the day. ❤️🤍💙

Cold & flu season is coming… don’t wait until you’re sick!

I have hundreds of customers who swear by our Propolis Immunity Tincture and tell me it has become an essential part of their daily wellness routine.

And there’s some pretty amazing research behind propolis. In laboratory studies, propolis has shown antimicrobial activity against bacteria like Strep and E. coli, as well as Candida.

Bees use propolis to protect the hive from bacteria, fungi and other microbes — and it’s exactly why I started making our tincture.

If you’ve been thinking about trying it, now is the time to start taking it daily. 🐝
