Peaches aren’t the only sweet treat you can find in Georgia. As it turns out, The Peach State has quite the honey acumen, too! Travel along the Georgia Grown Trail 37 in Clinch County and you will find The Honey Shack. It’s a part of Georgia’s agritourism, and it’s well worth your time.

Honey is an important part of Georgian culture and it has been for generations. Everyone knows it is sweet and comes from bees. Most people also know it's nutritious. Yet, there is more to this remarkable superfood.

Georgia has a diverse group of ecosystems. These differences in environments influence the kinds of honey produced. You will notice this honey tastes unlike typical honey bought from a supermarket.
