It is known as honey of a thousand flowers. Bees collect nectar for this honey from many different flowers blossoming at the same time in forests, orchards and on meadows. When it is harvested in spring, its colour is bright, taste is delicate and it smells pleasant.

Thanks to easily absorbed simple sugars, it supports heart muscle. It is helpful with liver and gallbladder treatment. Also, when you feel fatigued or tired, have a spoonful of multifloral honey to help you recover faster. If anyone is allergic to flower pollen, this honey can help to go through difficult time easily. It is good to start anti-allergic treatment month before flower blossoming (2-3 teaspoons, three times in a week). Thanks to its mild taste, multifloral honey is recommended for children with treatment of flu, cold, lower respiratory tract and generally works pre-emptively.

In Croatia it all begins in April when beekeepers harvest fruit honey and dandelion honey which is extracted until May. Then the hives and beekeepers, like real nomads, move in search of locust trees that yield high quality and delicious honey. At the same time bees are diligently collecting sage nectar.

The next activity takes place in June when hives are transferred to areas rich in chestnut trees, which has become a very uncertain and modest source of honey. At this period there is no activity of bees in Croatia, so the search for flower blossoms for the nectar takes beekeepers to areas of Gorski Kotar, Kordun and Lika. The three areas are enriched with abundant floral habitat and not far from it the national treasure of the famous Plitvice Lakes can be discovered.

This best speaks of the beekeepers' nomadic way of life and their readiness to cover several hundred kilometres every seven days to reach the faraway hives just for a few kilograms of sweet honey. In mid-September the bees return home. Then they mostly sip the nectar from heather and other plants blossoming at that time. For those who don't know much about honey making and its terminology, honey extraction is the process of removing honey from the honeycomb. So, after the last honey extraction in the year, beekeepers prepare their bees for the winter, leaving enough honey for them to survive - about fifteen kilograms in each hive.
