Celebrating Our TENNESSEE BLACK BEAR
American black bear (Ursus americanus): The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is one of the largest protected areas in the eastern United States where black bears can live in wild, natural surroundings. The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency refers to them as "state treasures." The Appalachian Trail Conservancy offers facts, images and safety tips for encounters with Appalachian Black Bears
Black bears in the Smokies are black in color, but in the mid-west the same species are brown or cinnamon. Head over to California and the same species is golden, like our Sourwood Honey. At maturity, black bears stand on all four paws at about 3-4 feet high at the shoulder, and might reach 6 feet standing. Black bears don't actually hibernate in winter but fall into deep sleep from which they sometimes wake. Bears live primarily along Tennessee's eastern border, in Blount, Carter, Cocke, Greene, Jefferson, Johnson, Monroe, Polk, Sevier, Sullivan, Unicoi, and Washington counties.

DARK WILDFLOWER HONEY BEAR
This dark satin honey has a rich caramel flavor. Dark Wildflower honey stays in the hive from summer until autumn, it is the last harvest of the year so it contains a full spectrum of pollen. The honey oxides in the hive result in the dark color and the caramel taste. The rich flavor reflects a mixture of tree, shrub and flower nectars.
Dark Wildflower is a perfect complement to biscuits, fruit compotes and teas. Drizzle it over fresh fruit or cheese. It is an excellent baker’s choice for pies, cobblers and artisan breads. Chefs may consider this rich honey for barbecue sauces and marinades.
