Beekeeper
A beekeeper is a person who keeps honey bees. Reasons may vary, from the production of commodities, to the assistance of the pollination of various plants, to an interest in bees and beekeeping. Here, a German beekeeper is holding a hive while wearing protective gear.Photo: Michael Gäbler

Beekeeping as a hobby/career

[edit]

I wanted to add more information regarding beekeeping as a potential career, especially comercial as people tend to make their living from business. Also, I wanted to expand the legal issues regarding beekeeping as I think that it is important that the general public knows if they were to actually pursue this hobby or career. Not only that, but I felt that I needed to explain the material value of honey and why it can be profitable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Engl1302 (talkcontribs) 16:32, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy! I am working on this page for a class as well, and was thinking we could potentially work on the page together! You have brought up some really good suggestions; I am working on a couple in my sandbox link I posted above today. Kb0204 (talk) 16:37, 1 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
