Beekeepers have stories as diverse as the honeys their bees create. Beekeeping has been in the family for generations; others are relatively new to the industry. Some use helicopters to reach their bees on high alpine meadows, while others walk out their backdoor or drive just a few miles up the road. Floating platforms are home to some bees, while “bee houses” holding dozens of exquisitely painted hives, each one unique, are home to others. Some beekeepers live and work in one specific location, while others are migratory beekeepers traveling cross-country to pollinate different crops and plants with distinct bloom times. Welcome to the diverse lives of beekeepers, all of whom are passionate about their bees and the honeys they produce!
