Honey Kurpiowski

-

Honeybee honey - nectar honey with a possible additive will fall. This is a multicultural honey for which the pollen of any of the plants can not exceed 30% and the permissible proportion of pollen of all crops can not exceed 10%.

The Kurpiński honey is collected in Kurpi area. Beekeeping in Kurpie is characterized by a small number of beekeepers, which is due to the difficult environmental conditions of running apiaries. It should be estimated that the number of beekeepers in this area does not exceed 400 and the total number of bee colonies does not exceed 8,000.

Honey is traditionally harvested from grasslands and forests. Grasslands (meadows, pastures, fallow) are the source of spring nectar honey nectar harvested from May to June. Mostly coniferous forests (spruce-pine) are the source of honey-nectar summer honey harvested in the period from July to August. Traditionally, the first spring harvest is carried out in the first half of June. Second summer honeybee harvest - ending the honey harvesting season - is carried out in the second half of July.

The term picking, centrifuging, and the way honey is stored and poured is due to centuries of tradition. In the 20th century, in order to honor the kurpiowski honey, the initiative of celebrating the honey was reborn. The first time, after a long break, it was organized in September 1976. This event is the largest event in this region. It is estimated that in "Kurpiowski Miodobraniu" in the years 2002-2006 participated from 20 to 35 thousand. people. Both the term and the place are a continuation of the habits of the Kurds since the 16th century.

Gold was to be obtained by caravans made up of several camels in the heat of the day, when the ants were protected underground. You had to do it quickly, because the ants sensed the smell of people and went on the pursuit, and they were deadly dangerous.
