Bees are incredible creatures. They are responsible for pollenating seventy percent of the fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds that we consume on a daily basis.
They work hard and we appreciate the honey that they forage from flowers, but there is another product that bees produce that we love so much… beeswax!
