The Tropical Blossom Honey Co. begins in 1937, when David and Helen McGinnis moved from the mountains of West Virginia to the coast of Central Florida. Living with David’s uncle in a backwoods cabin with no running water or electricity, David learned beekeeping in order to increase pollination in the family’s citrus groves and to provide a little honey for their table. The beehives thrived in Florida’s subtropical climate; soon there was enough surplus that Helen started bottling the golden harvest, and the couple sold the jars to tourist outlets in nearby Daytona Beach.
