The bee keepers hard at work.

We are in awe of honey bees; there is just so much these little workaholics do. In our garden, our single hive pollinates our crops (significantly increasing our yields), entertains us endlessly, and of course, produces delicious, nutritious honey for us to enjoy.  After the honey has been rendered from the comb, we are left with that ever useful bees wax from which we are able to make candles, lip balm and salves.  And finally, that powerful health balm, propolis.
