Try –and perhaps, buy– honey from different DC neighborhoods including Lincoln Park, Stanton Park and Congressional Cemetary. Each honey has a distinctive flavor representative of the flowers and trees in that neighborhood on which the local bees dined. This delicious honey was harvested only weeks ago!

Day also makes beautiful beeswax candles you can pick up to light up the precious remaining summer nights.
