The Tennessee Honey Festival is bringing together honey lovers and beekeepers to bring the honeybee crisis to the forefront of community minds. U.S. Pest Protection is a leader in the pest control industry and is working across industry lines to bring cooperation and agreement “to protect what matters most.” As confident leaders in the pest control industry we are raising the bar and setting the standards high by taking initiatives to save our honeybees,” says Erica Brister, CEO & President.

“The most interesting dynamic between U.S. Pest Protection and the bee and honey world is that our company is helping create a bond and trust between two industries that typically have a lot of miscommunication or no communication at all,” says Erica, “We are creating a blueprint for how the bee industry and the pest control industry can work together to help the great state of Tennessee shine!” U.S. Pest Protection believes pest controlis necessary in Tennessee. They protect the family and the home, adding bee safe best practices to their company standards. 

Jay Williams of Williams Honey Farm will bepresenting an overview of what it takes to be a successful beekeeper in Tennessee! A special presentation will also be given on raising and managing solitary bees.

The Tennessee Honey Festival is a free event that will be hosting state apiary leaders, honey industry leaders, beekeeping enthusiasts, a local honey contest with local honey vendors, as well as live entertainment and interactive art stations. The thread that ties the different industries, artists and organizations together is the desire and passion to educate and promote local and general honeybee awareness.
