July 1, 2026 - The mood is bright for beekeepers in Sakarya, one of Turkey's key honey production regions, as they finalize preparations for the new season. With honey harvesting set to begin in two weeks, producers anticipate a higher yield compared to last year.

In Sakarya, known for its endemic plant species and rich forests, beekeepers are eagerly counting down to the honey harvest. The collection is expected to start in about 10-15 days, with particular interest in the geographically certified Kocaali Chestnut Honey and floral honeys produced in higher altitudes.
