This year, most of my hives put up honey during August, when the primary
blooms in the area seemed to be tansy, goldenrod, and spotted knapweed.
The honey is a medium amber, and it has an interesting "fruity" flavor
that I never noticed in previous years.  I don't know what is responsible
for the flavor, but it is selling very well at $6 for a 10-ounce jar :-)
