Artichoke honey

You would never know there is an international bee crisis if you happen to be near my artichokes. I think maybe half the bees in California are currently frequenting the artichoke flowers in my garden, drinking the nectar and building up the cute yellow pollen bags on their tiny thighs. All day long, the deep purple flowers are buzzing with these little honey-making stripey fellows, making me wonder… Where oh where is all that delicious artichoke honey?
