History

Kopaszewo was a private village of Polish nobility, administratively located in the Kościan County in the Poznań Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.[2]

The local palace was visited several times by poet Adam Mickiewicz in 1831–1832, and by actress Helena Modjeska in 1868.

In the mid-19th century, the estate was purchased by

London planes.[3] Other plants are also found in the area. Beekeeping soon developed, and Kopaszewo became a center for the production of various types of honey, now designated a local traditional food.[3]

Cuisine

The officially protected traditional food of Kopaszewo as designated by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Poland, is the Kopaszewo Honey, which comes in several varieties, i.e. multi-flower honey, rapeseed honey, acacia honey and linden honey.[3]
