Cherokee Historic Honey Bee Hives Catch Your Real Cherokee Honey Buzz

Celebrating Cherokee Beekeeping and a Nod to Fox News’ Sonny & Clayton’s Grit By Christy Payne, Cherokee Beekeeper at Big V Honey Bee Hello, Rogers County Cherokee Community! As a proud Cherokee beekeeper, I’m buzzing with pride to share a historic milestone at Big V Honey Bee in Claremore, OK (https://maps.app.goo.gl/cDMn3xwE3APeoe5u5). We’ve bottled the first-ever honey produced on Cherokee land, a moment that celebrates our heritage, our land, and the incredible work of our bees. Our hives at Big V Honey Bee aren’t just about producing delicious honey—they’re a cornerstone of our mission to pollinate our permaculture project and educate our community about the vital role bees play in our ecosystem. This milestone caught the attention of Fox News, and I want to give a huge shoutout to Clayton for his dedication in covering our story.  Clayton braved some serious challenges, trudging through water and getting stung multiple times to share our journey with the world. His commitment to showcasing our Cherokee beekeeping efforts, despite the stings and tough conditions, deserves major kudos! You can watch the feature in the Cherokee Nation’s video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Et42e-GFPck. Our farm stand is buzzing with Cherokee-crafted products, perfect for savoring this historic harvest:Comb HoneyCinnamon Creamed HoneyRaw HoneyCherokee-Crafted Peppermint Bee Kiss Lip BalmPayne’s Pain Away Soothing Massage Cream with Kombo Butter I’ll be in Tulsa on Wednesday, August 13, and can deliver these goodies right to you! Call or text me at 918-417-9253 to place your order. This is more than just honey—it’s a celebration of Cherokee resilience, community, and our connection to the land. Join us in supporting our mission to sustain our environment and spread the word about the importance of bees. Catch Your Real Cherokee Honey Buzz!
