Honeybees live collectively in colonies inside enclosures called beehives. I place beehives around the city in our neighborhoods and tend the bees to keep them healthy. Bees make honey from plant nectar, and sometimes they produce surplus honey. I harvest the surplus honey, and then I sell it to you.
