An Almond Story

This video along with its companion activity book tells the California Almond story from the perspective of a bee left behind in the orchard after the pollination season is over. Auntie Bee’s story is spellbinding as she expounds on the almond’s history, its unique food properties and many uses, as well as its incredible nutritional value. “An Almond Story” is a captivating classroom learning experience that’s as much fun as it is educational. The video and the activity book are meant to be used together by grade school teachers.
