The Mystery of Honey Bees: What They Do For Us, What Science Still Can't Explain

from Farm Fresh Homestead | Homesteading, Organic Gardening & Living Off the Land · host Mary Boyd - Food Sovereignty & Resilient Living Expert

Honey bees are responsible for 1 in every 3 bites of food you eat — but what's happening inside the hive is far more mysterious and extraordinary than most people ever realize. In this episode of Farm Fresh, we go deep into the secret life of honey bees: what they do for our food system, what science has only recently discovered, and what researchers still cannot fully explain. This isn't a beekeeping how-to. This is the story of one of nature's most intelligent, ancient, and endangered creatures — told by someone who has stood next to a hive and felt the full weight of what lives inside it.
