Beekeeping and Honey Production

Bees pollinate more than 70% of the crops we eat, yet their numbers are falling because of habitat loss, pesticides, climate change and disease.

This beekeeping documentary follows a local beekeeper who raises bees and produces natural honey to support his family.

Often overlooked, beekeeping is a skilled craft that combines traditional knowledge with hard physical work. His careful methods protect the bees as much as they provide an income. The film is part of our Craftsmen series of documentaries.
