Here's a sweet natural foodie fact: September is National Honey Month.

And here in Northeastern Indiana, urban, or backyard beekeeping is all the buzz!

According to Northeastern Indiana Beekeepers Association's Swarm Leader, Ted Braun, residents are interested and the club's population has exploded.

Earlier this week, WBOI's Julia Meek met with Braun to discuss the popularity of this tasty hobby.
