September is Honey Month and we believe that everyone in the Twin Cities should celebrate the oh-so-sweet gift our local bee hives provide. Honeybees are far from pests; in fact, we have honeybees to thank for much more than just honey. These insects forage for nectar which then transfers pollen from plant to plant. This pollination process fertilizes each plant and enables them to bear fruits. Simply put: without honeybees, many major crops like apples and avocados would cease to grow. Show your love of honey and appreciation for honeybees by picking up a batch of local honey from one of these places around the Twin Cities.

• Bare Honey – 635 SE 9th St., Minneapolis, MN 55414
  Bare Honey believes that honey should be sweet, the way nature intended. Blending their 100 percent raw honey with simple spices, Bare Honey creates spreadable honeys that will inspire you to put honey on everything! Cinnamon Honey, Cocoa Honey Spread, Hot & Spicy Honey, and Vanilla Bean Honey are just some of their super sweet flavors that you'll want to add to every meal after you close on one of our new Minneapolis homes for sale.

Many people looking at Minneapolis homes for sale are excited about getting an opportunity to personalize their home and yard to make it truly their own. Just one of the reasons a yard is on the top of almost every buyer's list is gardening. It's a popular hobby and an excellent way to add beauty and function to your outdoor space.

• Choose the type of garden
  Decide whether you want an herb, vegetable, or flower garden. If the idea of having fresh herbs or vegetables to cook with excites you, opt for those. If you would rather have some color in the yard or don't have enough sun for the vegetables you want, opt for flowers instead. Do you want your garden to bed to be directly in the ground, raised bed, or a container garden? Herb gardens can often be planted in smaller spaces or containers if that is a better option for you. You'll also want to consider the maintenance and space requirements as well.
