A Really Cool Story
Facing our fears takes courage. Many of us have something that scares us—spiders, heights, darkness… or bees.
Recently, we met a young boy from Fairfield who was afraid of bees. The buzzing terrified him, and he worried they might chase and sting him. Determined to learn, he and his dad read two children’s books about bees over several days.
The following week, he and his mom visited our apiary. From a safe distance, we watched the bees busily gather nectar and pollen, mostly ignoring us. Then, a tired bee landed nearby. Chris picked her up, and she calmly rested on his hand. Soon, the boy was talking to her—and even held her gently.
By the end of the day, he had faced his fear, learned that bees are mostly busy workers, and left with newfound confidence, knowledge, and self-esteem. It was a beautiful, unforgettable day for all of us.
