Honey & the bees that make it

Honey comes from honey bees, which have been brought over to North America from Europe. They are not native to North America. Therefore, we build special beehives for them, which helps them survive Northern Ontario’s cold winters. It also helps us extract honey from the frames, where they build honeycomb and store the honey.
