The number one branded honey company will invest in industry-leading research and educational programs for the second year in a row at UC Davis  

MCKINNEY, TEXAS – September 29, 2021 – In honor of National Honey Month, Nature Nate’s Honey Co., the number-one branded honey company in the U.S. and producer of 100% pure, raw & unfiltered honey, today announces a continued investment in The Honey and Pollination Center located in the Robert Mondavi Institute for Wine and Food Science at UC Davis.  

“At Nature Nate’s we are deeply passionate about promoting responsible beekeeping practices and protecting honey bee health, which is why we are honored to work with our university partners at the UC Davis Honey and Pollination Center to support their important research and educational programs,” said Nathan Sheets, President and CEO of Nature Nate’s. “For us, it’s all about honey bees and working towards a world where they – and our ecosystems – are healthy.”  

In spring 2020, Nature Nate’s sponsored UC Davis’ Honey Symposium, which focused on understanding how honey adulteration affects beekeepers, honey production and ultimately, our food system. Through Nature Nate’s Long Live the Bees initiative, the company invests in programs that keep hives healthy and honey bee populations thriving, so everyone can enjoy the unadulterated goodness of real, pure honey. In addition, Nature Nate’s supports honey bee health programs at other leading universities across the U.S. 

The UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology has been consistently ranked as one of the top programs in the country and continues to lead the way in agricultural innovation and sustainability, in part through fostering pollinator-related research and conferences.  

“Working with Nature Nate’s allows the Center to fulfill its mission of helping UC Davis become a leading authority, not just in the world of bees and bee health, but also in the area of honey quality and purity,” said Amina Harris, director of the Honey and Pollination Center. “Nature Nate’s understands it takes long-term committed support for programs like the Center to develop and have impact.”
