H ONEY, BEEKEEPER S A R E I N PEN S ACO L A by Gina Castro

Although bees appear small and somewhat insignificant, they are the main insect pollinators. Bees pollinate approximately 130 agricultural crops in the US and add about $14 billion annually to improved crop yield and quality. Interestingly, the Gulf Coast is home to a rare species of bees called Hesperapis Oraria also known as the Gulf Coast Solitary Bee. This bee was discovered in 1993 and is known to exist only in the sandy dunes along the Gulf of Mexico, where it feeds on only Coastal Plain honeycombhead. There is much more to discover about the Gulf Coast Solitary Bee, but because this region constantly has something in bloom, the Gulf Coast is an exceptional location for bees. The area’s mild winters allow for plants like Coastal Plain honeycombhead to bloom all year through, which, in turns, supplies food for bees throughout the year. Florida is the fifth leading honey-producing state. Pesticides, diseases, pests and loss of habitat are just some of the issues facing bees today. Beekeepers actually help bees grapple with these issues. Pensacola has dozens of beekeepers and even more are spread throughout Escambia County. Pensacola Magazine spoke with a few professional beekeepers in the area about what motivated them to care for bees. Little Green Bees

For as long as Becca Fritschle can remember, she’s had a sweet spot for bugs. So, when she received a message from God to start beekeeping in 2011, she happily took the challenge head on. “I felt like God spoke to me to get honey bees. That is the true story. I didn’t know anything about keeping bees. I didn’t know anything about bees, but I’d loved bugs since I was a kid,” Fristschle said. “So I decided that the best thing to do was speak to other beekeepers in the area and see how to get bees.” After some mentorship from local beekeepers, a few rookie mistakes and a stroke of luck on Craigslist, Fristschle had all the necessary knowledge and equipment to launch Little Green Bees. For the past decade, Fristschle and her husband, James, have been growing their company Little Green Bees. They have more than 30 hives in

their backyard and in other areas southwest of Pensacola. Aside from wildflower honey, they also have seasonal products, salves, balms, chocolates and other products produced by their hives. Fristschle’s years of experience as a beekeeper and bumps along the road made her an excellent mentor for beekeepers in the area. She runs the Gulf Coast Beekeeping School. Fristschle only teaches about beekeeping in the Gulf Coast region because beekeeping differs depending on the climate. Fristschle explained that she teaches her students about the beekeeping certification process, how to find equipment at an affordable price and the expenses of beekeeping among other topics. Since beekeeping is costly, Fristschle also teaches others how to catch wild swarms of bees. “Catching swarms is the only way to get free bees,” Fristschle explained. “You just dig through the pile of bees with your hands until you find the queen, and you put her in a little cage. Once you have the queen captured, the rest of the colony will follow. I have stood in the back of a truck on a ladder with a bucket on a pole trying to catch bees. So it varies between safe and stupid.” The cost of beekeeping isn’t the only thing that stings. The bees do, too. Fristschle admitted her bees sting her daily if

not more, but she doesn’t think it’s a bad thing. “I consider it therapy at this point being stung. Bee venom is anti-inflammatory propolis. I use it as an immune support,” Fristschle said. “I have a thyroid condition, and it seems like the bees just go straight for my neck.” Bee venom has been used medicinally dating back to ancient Egypt. Hippocrates, known as the father of medicine, used the venom to treat joint pain and arthritis. In fact, there is anecdotal evidence that bee venom may prevent or lessen the symptoms of COVID. A 2020 survey from Hubei Province found that of the nearly 6,000 beekeepers surveyed, none of them contracted COVID in the densely populated epicenter of the outbreak. Before you rush out to get stung, though, remember further studies are needed to determine the efficacy of this holistic approach. Honey and venom aren’t the only other health benefits of bees. Fristschle said the sound of bees can also serve a medical purpose. If you believe there is any merit to sound therapy or sound bath meditation, you might find healing in the steady hum of bees busy at work. Countries in Eastern Europe have created healing spaces that enable people to smell the hives of the bees and hear the bees swarming around them all while being in an enclosed space away from the bees.

“Bees vibrate at a certain frequency. They emit pheromones, and the honey and wax have certain fragrances. Whether or not you put any stock in sound healing or frequencies or anything like that, the bees heal themselves that way,” Fristschle said. “If you have two colonies, a healthy colony and a sick colony, they vibrate at a different frequency. Researchers have taken recordings of a healthy colony and have piped it into a sick colony. The sound alone marked improvement in the health of the sick colony.” Fristschle also went on to say how the sound of the bees benefits her. “I have taken so many naps in front of my beehives. I find it therapeutic,” Fristschle said. “The fragrance in the summertime of a healthy bee colony is like nothing else.”

Today, you can find East Hill Honey all over Pensacola— from grocery stores, to retail shops to restaurants, but East Hill Honey’s road to success didn’t start out big. In 2011, Thomas “Tommy” Van Horn, the founder, started out with just two bee hives in his backyard. Before he knew it, Van Horn had more honey than he knew what to do with. Van Horn began giving the surplus honey as gifts to friends and family. Eventually, he started delivering honey to his neighbors by bicycle. Continued on Page 3 ›

The Summation Weekly Continued from Page 1 Casey S. Dillon, Van Horn’s longtime friend and East Hill Honey vice president of sales and marketing, recalls when Van Horn was just starting outVan Horn wanted locally made honey to overpower the fake honey sold in grocery stores. “He had this idea with a couple other area beekeepers that they would try to keep Pensacola in the region of local honey and try to block out all of the non-honey in the grocery stores,” Dillon explained. Fake honey in grocery stores is an issue. The Journal of Food Science’s comprehensive overview of fake foods states that honey is the third most faked food in the world. The FDA refuses petitions to create a standard of identity for honey. These loose standards allow companies from around the world to sell products that have a small amount of pollen mixed with corn syrup or fructose syrup as authentic honey. “Honey, especially, has been taken advantage of. Most of the honey in stores might say ‘made in the USA,’ but it’s just packaged there,” Dillon said. “Basically, they’re just bringing in what folks in the industry call ‘burnt honey’ because they treat it and heat it. They get rid of all the good amino acids and enzymes.” Dillon explained that for consumers who are interested in eating the real thing, it’s better to buy raw unfiltered honey from local beekeepers. Buying directly from beekeepers also benefits bees. There has been a decrease in certain species of bees, one of the most important pollinators, due to loss of habitat, pesticides and diseases. However, Dillon stated that by supporting beekeepers, consumers are supporting bees. “The only way that we can keep bees healthy and around us is if we support beekeepers,” Dillon said. “The people who produce, they’re going to treat their bees the best because they want to get their money’s worth. A lot of people worry about the bees, but really it starts with the beekeeper because the beekeeper is going to manage that. Bees do exist in the wild but not at any number that’s easily sustainable for everything.” East Hill Honey has around 1,000 hives dispersed throughout the county. Dillon explained that East Hill chases flows to produce flavorful honey such as Tupelo, wildflower and Gallberry. The flavor of the bees’ honey is impacted by what plants the bees forge. So, to get the typical light, sweet wildflower honey, East Hill will take its bees to the coast near swamps in Perdido. They also have hives around Molino, Garcon Point and Tiger Point, too.

Community “Basically, every flower has a different nectar and different pollen,” Dillon said. “The pollen might not change that much in taste, but the nectar when it’s essentially fermented, that’s what honey is, you’ll have a different taste.” Dillon explained that it takes about two million flowers to produce a pound of honey, depending on the plant, so East Hill’s 16 oz bottles have pollen from over a million flowers in the area. Types of honey like Tupelo honey and Gallberry honey have to be timed. Gallberry, a local favorite, flows for a couple of months, so it’s a bit easier for beekeepers to catch. Although Tupelo honey, a widespread favorite, is more challenging. East Hill’s Tupelo honey comes from only White Ogeechee Tupelo Gum found along the river basins of the Choctawhatchee, Chipola and Apalachicola River. This deciduous tree flows for around one to two weeks out of the year. East Hill Honey has grown a great deal throughout the decade. The company recently came under new ownership. A commercial beekeeper from Molino, Christopher Ziglar has been a beekeeper for a couple of years and runs around a 1,000 hives. Ziglar taught a workshop about queen rearing for Purdue University. Van Horn is still involved with the company. “He [Ziglar] is really interested in taking East Hill to the next level and trying to do a few new products. There are a lot of similarities between both of them entrepreneurial,” Dillon said in reference to East Hill owner and founder. “They just go for it kind of people. They want what’s best for the bees and for local ecosystems.” To learn more about East Hill Honey Co, visit their website easthillhoney. com, or find them on Facebook @EastHillHoney. Bee Sanctuary Honey Farm

Beekeeping has been a trade for generations in William “Shelby” Johnson’s family. Growing up, Shelby remembers helping his grandparents, uncles and dad tend the hives, and his dad still runs the family farm today. As Shelby grew up and attended college, he broke away from beekeeping. In the early 2000s, he was drawn to beekeeping once more. “What really spurred me to get serious about getting back into beekeeping was the varroa mites, actually,” Shelby began. “It’s kind of strange, but the decimation of the bee colonies brought me back to it. I thought, ‘Well, I’m gonna get in there and help solve this problem.’ That’s what got me back on it again.” Shelby’s daughter, Zoie Johnson, 19, recalled her dad bringing a couple of hives home to their backyard.

“I was eight or nine years old when my dad had brought home a couple of hives in our backyard. From then on, we’ve just kind of grown it. So that was about 10 years ago,” Zoie said. “It’s been in the family for a couple of generations.” Shelby spent a few years growing his apiary and discovering ways to fight off varroa mites. Around 2005, Shelby and his family launched Bee Sanctuary Honey Farm. Zoie helps with the marketing side of the business as well as making products like honey, chapstick and soaps. Zoie’s mom and Shelby’s wife, Rizza also assists with the business. While Shelby focuses on the scientific, genetic side of the business. The varroa mites are a major issue for bees. Once a colony is infected with this parasite, the colony will die in one to three years. The varroa mites weaken the hive by multiplying in the brood cells where the queen laid her eggs. The mites then lay their eggs in the brood cell and the young mites feed off the bee larvae. This action often infects the developing bees with viruses that shorten their lifespan. “That’s why there’s no more really wild bees. In the wild here, there are feral bees because they escaped from established apiaries. When we brought the European honeybee over from Europe—for a couple 100 years, they established themselves in the wild, but they’re pretty much extinct,” Shelby explained. “You might find a feral colony. But if you do, it’s one that’s only been there for a short period of time. It’s usually a swarm from an established colony or apiary that swarmed off and took up residence, but they won’t survive very long. No more than a couple of years.” However, with the help of beekeepers, bees can survive varroa mites. Shelby explained that because the mites are ubiquitous it’s virtually impossible to eradicate them. So the key to preventing hives from a varroa mite infestation is monitoring the hive and treating it before and after each honey flow. “There are organic treatments for varroa mites that aren’t pesticide type chemicals,” Shelby said. “Essential

oils like eucalyptus and thyme can organically get rid of the varroa mites, but nothing is 100 percent or else we wouldn’t have any more varroa mites.” Bee Sanctuary Honey Farm sells more than just honey and other bee products. It’s also a one stop shop for local beekeepers. They sell cypress hive ware that is durable and resistant to the Gulf Coasts’ humid conditions; bees and queens that are suited for the region and are exceptional honey producers; and also offer classes on requested topics. Shelby explained it’s important to purchase local bees because of genetics. “You’re selecting the best traits for your weather, your environment, your seasonal cycles and those kinds of things. In the northern states, they go months and months and months, where the bees never leave the hive because they’re snowed in,” Shelby continued. “Well, bees with those types of genetics are great for that environment, but our environment is hot and humid, so bees fly pretty much year round, and there’s something blooming here year round. You want to select genetics for that, and then build off of those genetics that do better in your environment.” This same logic is applied to their queen grafting process. Zoie explained that they look for hives that are calm, not aggressive and produce a lot of honey and wax. Hives with those characteristics produce the best queens. If you’re considering becoming a beekeeper, Shelby and Zoie advise you join the Escarosa Beekeepers Association or another local beekeepers group. The Escarosa Beekeepers Association is a nonprofit made up of beekeepers. They meet monthly to share ideas and discuss issues bees are experiencing in this region. “That’s going to be the best place to find an actual mentor that can be hands on and help you with learning beekeeping,” Shelby said.

REVAMP OF UNEMPLOYMENT SYSTEM GETS SENATE SUPPORT JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — A move has begun to revamp Florida’s less-than-decadeold online unemployment system, which couldn’t handle the influx of claims as businesses shut down last year because of the coronavirus pandemic. The Senate Commerce and Tourism Committee on Monday approved a measure (SB 1948) tied to a request by Department of Economic Opportunity Executive Director Dane Eagle for more than $73 million over the next two years to overhaul the CONNECT unemployment system. “Perhaps the most frustrating thing for those (unemployed) individuals was just not knowing, couldn’t log on, didn’t know if their request was even being heard,” bill sponsor Aaron Bean, R-Fernandina Beach, said. Bean’s proposal doesn’t say how much money would go to system changes this year, leaving that up to the legislative budget process. The proposal also initially called for a “cloud-based system” to replace the CONNECT system, as Eagle has recommended. But an amendment approved Monday would let state Chief Information Officer James Grant, the Department of Revenue and the Department of Financial Services review any newly proposed system. “We think the cloud system is the best way to go, because it doesn’t have that piecemeal patchwork Band-Aid approach that we’ve seen before,” Bean said. “We will intend to go forward, consult with all of the smart people that will work it together, and live within our budget as prescribed by the budget process coming out in the next few weeks.”

Sen. Jason Pizzo, D-North Miami Beach, expressed concern about removing the language for a “cloud-based system. “I understand, I heard something that it’ll be in the general appropriations language and all that stuff, but I don’t want to get to a Pelosi situation where we have to pass something to know what’s in it,” Pizzo said, referring to U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. Along with requiring that a new system be put in place, the wide-ranging proposal would create the Office of Economic Accountability and Transparency, which would be responsible for making future upgrades to the system. The office would be created within the Department of Economic Opportunity. The proposal doesn’t address the amount or weeks of benefits out-ofwork Floridian can receive. Sen. Bobby Powell, a West Palm Beach Democrat who has sponsored legislation (SB 592) to increase weekly benefits to a maximum of $500, said Bean’s proposal will be a “step in the right direction” if the changes increase the speed in which claims are processed. “It will be better for not just us here, but everybody in the state of Florida,” Powell said. “Sen. Pizzo’s office, of course, as well as mine and a number of other elected (officials) were overwhelmed with the constant plight of those who had been unable to access benefits during the early and mid-parts of this pandemic.” Bean’s bill also would reduce from 20 to 14 days the time employers must respond to notices of claims and change part of state law that has prevented domestic violence victims from being eligible for claims.

HOUSE PANEL APPROVES SOCIAL MEDIA CRACKDOWN NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF In a priority of Gov. Ron DeSantis, a House committee Monday approved a bill designed to crack down on socialmedia companies that block users from their platforms. The House Appropriations Committee voted 19-8 to approve the measure (HB 7013), sponsored by Rep. Blaise Ingoglia, R-Spring Hill. The proposal came after decisions by Twitter and Facebook to block former President Donald Trump from their platforms in January after Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol to try to prevent certification of President Joe Biden’s election victory. In part, the bill

would prevent social-media sites from blocking political candidates in Florida from platforms. It also would require the companies to publish standards about issues such as blocking users and apply the standards consistently. “We need transparency, accountability and consistency,” Ingoglia said. But some opponents said they think the bill would violate the companies’ constitutional rights. They raised concerns about violating the First Amendment and whether the state has the authority to regulate such issues. “This is broke. I just don’t know whether it is in our purview to fix it,” Rep. Joe Geller, DAventura, said.

Also, Eagle’s title would be changed to “Secretary of Economic Opportunity” and he would be given seats on the board of directors of CareerSource Florida, which provides oversight of workforce-development programs, and Enterprise Florida, the state’s businessrecruitment arm. Long-time social services lobbyist Karen Woodall said increasing weekly unemployment benefits, from the current $275 a week, and increasing the number of weeks, from 19, is just as important as revamping the system. “Modernizing is not just about the computer and the process, it’s critical, it’s a critical point. But modernizing the underlying policy is also critical,” Woodall, who is with the Florida Center for Fiscal and Economic Policy, said. “And our frustration is that the conversation so far on the unemployment issue has all been about the computer and the process.” CONNECT went live in 2013 at a cost that eventually reached $81 million. State Chief Inspector General Melinda Miguel, in a draft report released March 4, found that the system was never tested to meet the demands encountered during the pandemic, and more than a dozen issues remained outstanding years after the system went live. Miguel told lawmakers Wednesday that when the contract for CONNECT was approved, state officials “thought they were buying an off-the-shelf, mature, robust system, and instead they were buying a project that was under development.” Gov. Ron DeSantis called the system, among other things, a “jalopy” after it repeatedly crashed last year when hundreds of thousands of unemployment claims were filed as businesses shut down.

SENATORS BACK PLAN ON SEALEVEL RISE NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF Part of a House plan to combat impacts of rising sea levels drew bipartisan support Monday in what is expected to be a short trip through Senate committees. The Senate Environment and Natural Resources Committee unanimously approved a bill (SB 1954) that includes spending up to $100 million a year on projects to address flooding and sea-level rise and creating a grant program for local governments. “Under this grant program, the Department of Environmental Protection will provide grants to local governments to cover the cost of community resilience planning,” said Sen. Ray Rodrigues, an Estero Republican who is sponsoring the bill. “For example, conducting vulnerability assessments and developing plans and policies to allow communities to prepare for the threat from flooding and from sea level rise.” The proposal, part of a plan House Speaker Chris Sprowls introduced on Feb. 26, also includes setting up a three-year statewide flooding and sea level resilience plan

CIGARETTE SMOKING ON BEACHES TARGETED NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF A Senate committee on Monday unanimously approved a bill that would allow counties and cities to restrict smoking on beaches and public parks they own. Before passing the bill (SB 334), the Environment and Natural Resources Committee approved an amendment by Chairman Jason Brodeur, R-Sanford, that would prevent local governments from banning cigar or pipe smoking on beaches or in parks.

Eagle said Monday a goal of the change is to craft a system that can be updated annually, noting the modernization of the unemployment system “froze” after being set up in 2013. Eagle said this month that retaining CONNECT is “not an option.” “What I’m proposing is a new system, but it is using pieces that we have,” Eagle told the Senate Transportation, Tourism and Economic Development Appropriations Subcommittee during a confirmation hearing Wednesday. “There is some value to some of the coding, some of the mainframes, the infrastructure. But once we are finished with at least the proposal that we put in place, this will be a new car.” Eagle’s request for funding calls for $32.9 million during the 2021-2022 fiscal year, which will begin July 1, and $40.4 million the following fiscal year, according to a report released by the department late Friday. More than 60 percent of the work would involve human resources, 27 percent for software and 12 percent for hardware. Additional base budget and maintenance costs wouldn’t be reviewed until the COVID-19 crisis is considered contained, which might take until the middle of 2023. The state spent $49 million last year as the department scrambled to make emergency improvements to the system and hired hundreds of people to field questions about claims. The system was budgeted at $12 million a year. An identical bill (HB 1463), sponsored by Rep. Chip LaMarca, R-Lighthouse Point, awaits an appearance before the House Tourism, Infrastructure & Energy Subcommittee.

that the Department of Environmental Protection would update annually. The bill has support from Audubon Florida, the League of Women Voters of Florida and the Florida Chamber of Commerce. Jonathan Webber, deputy director of the Florida Conservation Voters, supported the bill but said the Legislature should also consider regulating sources of greenhouse gas emissions. The proposal must get approval from the Appropriations Committee before it could go to the Senate floor. Gov. Ron DeSantis, who proposed a $1 billion, four-year plan to help communities fight rising sea levels, has suggested using some of the new federal coronavirus relief money heading to Florida for the “resiliency” efforts. DeSantis also earlier proposed issuing bonds for the projects. But House leaders have resisted bonding proposals to avoid long-term debt. Sprowls’ proposal calls for spending $25 million next fiscal year on the program, with the amount jumping to $100 million a year starting in the 2022-2023 fiscal year without issuing bonds. The House version of the bill (HB 7019) has cleared one committee and next goes before the State Affairs Committee.

Bill sponsor Joe Gruters, R-Sarasota, said the goal is to get cigarettes off beaches and that cigars haven’t been the issue. Florida has 67 county park systems and more than 400 municipal park systems. According to a staff analysis of the bill, it is estimated that, of the roughly 6 trillion cigarettes smoked annually worldwide, up to two-thirds of cigarette butts are discarded as litter. The butts contain hazardous substances that can potentially be toxic to animals. The House Professions & Public Health Subcommittee is slated Tuesday to consider the House version (HB 239), sponsored by Rep. Thad Altman, R-Indialantic.
