THE SWEET TREASURE OF BEES

FROM THE HIVE TO THE JAR: HONEY PRODUCTION

From the moment the hive is opened, the bees are carefully observed to assess the maturation of the honey in the combs. Once ready, the frames are removed, uncapped, and centrifuged to collect the honey. After filtering, the honey is ready to be jarred and enjoyed.
