Join us for a special night of food & film at Plimoth
Plantation to savor the sweet story of honey and to celebrate
the amazing bees (and beekeepers!) behind all the buzz.
Enjoy live music and a tasting of locally-sourced cuisine under the stars, featuring delicious and inventive bites provided by farmers and food-makers of The Plymouth Farmers' Market. Local, seasonal recipes are generously presented by local food hero, Martha Stone of Plymouth Eats.
Plan to arrive hungry and thirsty for the flavors from southeastern Massachusetts hives, fields and (busy as a bee) kitchens. The menu will include recipes made with locally grown and raised rhubarb, garlic, scapes, pea tendrils and shoots, asparagus, rabbit, duck, pork, beef, chicken, eggs, cheese, bread, spring greens and organic cranberries. Vegetarian options will be abundant, beer and wine will be available as well as a honey based "Bees Knees" cocktail made special for the evening.
View the film Queen of the Sun, winner of 10 film awards.
Stay for a post-film panel discussion as we explore the history of honey and the fascinating life of the planet's "angels of agriculture."

the beehive. This engaging and ultimately uplifting film weaves an unusual and
dramatic story of the heartfelt struggles of beekeepers, scientists and
philosophers from around the world including Michael Pollan, Gunther Hauk
and Vandana Shiva. Together they reveal both the problems and the solutions in
renewing a culture in balance with nature.
