In his sixth appearance in the New York Times since Insectopedia went on sale in March, Hugh Raffles tells us to wake up and smell the honey in his July 7 Op-Ed piece about the benefits of urban beekeeping. Raffles says: “There is nothing quite like your first open-air taste of fresh, local honey, sparkling with flavor, straight from the source. More New Yorkers should get that experience.” Don’t miss Raffles on the Kojo Nnamdi Show/WAMU-FM on 7/8 at 1 pm EST.
Raffles’ other appearances in the New York Times include raves from Philip Hoare in the Book Review, Janet Maslin in the Arts section, and Katherine Bouton in the Science Times; Raffles was also profiled in a feature by Ralph Blumenthal in the Metro section, and had a Q&A with Jennifer McDonald in the Paper Cuts blog.
