They will also demonstrate how bees work with a “see-through” hive. “Because of the types of trees and plants that the bees work, West Virginia has flavors of honey you won't find in other places,” said State Apiarist George Clutter. “I'm a bit biased, but I think we have some of the best-tasting honey in the country.” Bees are also important for pollination of the state's fields and forests. They dramatically improve pollination of all sorts of wild plants, as well as fruits, flowers and garden plants. They are such effective pollinators that exporting bee colonies to other states to help their farmers is becoming an industry of its own. Some beekeepers have sent bees as far as California to help farmers there pollinate their crops.
