Lucy Winn was selected the 2022 American Honey Queen at the American Beekeeping Federation Conference and Tradeshow held recently in Las Vegas, Nev.
According to the American Beekeeping Federation, Winn is the 20-year-old daughter of Stephen and Lauren Winn of Carlisle, and the granddaughter of Marlene Winn of Cohasset, Mass., and Carol Michaud of Phoenixville.
Winn is a sophomore at the DeSales University where she studies business management and marketing.
Her family keeps backyard beehives, which sparked her passion for beekeeping.
At school, Winn tutors local students in math. In her free time, she loves to read, throw pottery, walk her dog, and keep bees.
Before being selected as the American Honey Queen, Winn served as 2020 and 2021 Pennsylvania Honey Queen.
