HUSA April 1 2026 - Orange Honey Harvest

And that's a wrap, says Kiowa Honey Company.

Kiowa Honey Company is located in two locations, both California and Nebraska, and they wrote, "spring has sprung early. With no bee food left in the valley and farmers planning to spray oranges, the bees must be moved. Where to, you ask? To the coast. With any luck, we will make some sage, honey, or wildflower, whatever the bees find. And if they don't make enough to harvest, they will still eat to satisfy themselves and prepare for Nebraska. We are praying for big spring rains in Nebraska, not just for our own honey crop, but to provide some relief for the people of Nebraska.

We sincerely appreciate companies with good morals, ideas, and standards. Kiowa Honey Company is one of those, along with another one called Seven Weeks Coffee. If you haven't heard of it, it's a simple idea. What if a coffee could save lives? Turns out it can. 10% of every sale from Seven Weeks Coffee is donated to pregnancy centers around the United States.

Attention truckers, the Nebraska Department of Agriculture says we have hay ready to move. There's a list of donations available for pickup. That's on the nda.nebraska.gov website under Disaster Resources. To further assist those affected by the recent wildfires, the Nebraska Trucking Association has created the Nebraska Trucking Heroes Wildfires Relief Fund. Anyone willing to haul hay and eating capacity, who helps transport relief supplies, can give support to offset the high cost of fuel. This stipend offers 50 cents a mile, up to 500 miles per trip. To learn more on how to apply for these funds, find that post from the Nebraska Department of Agriculture on our Facebook page at Harvest USA Report.
