The Bee Day 2023 festival will take place on the big meadow in the South Park in Sofia. The celebration aims to draw attention to honey bees, while the occasion is World Bee Day. The organizers from the True Honey Association have prepared many workshops, a children's corner with various activities to engage, educate and entertain the young ones. 

"On this day, honey bee lovers will have the opportunity to delight in honey and other bee products, and children will also be involved in the topic of bees and the healing qualities of honey," says Stefani Karaivanova for Radio Sofia.  In the last few years she has noticed that there are more and more people who are passionate not only about honey, but also about meeting beekeepers, as they are the ones who are always looking for ways to help the bees so that we can live in peace with nature - says Stephani Karaivanova.
