GloryBee
The company, started out of a backyard selling honey for 40 years, aims to provide the world with food that is not only nourishing for families but is also good for the planet. Today, the company has grown to international scope and recently became a certified B-Corporation (verification of social and environmental commitments), while maintaining an explicit commitment to honoring God in all it does.

Heavenly Father, thank you for the work of the Turanski family and GloryBee products. Thank you for the passion they have for the honeybee and for the work they are doing to save the honeybee. I pray that I can take a position of stewardship in my daily life. May you give me the opportunity to make environmentally conscious decisions. Amen.
