I agree with you, but raising bees is not as easy as it seems anymore. Our hive experienced colony collapse. I never thought I would mourn the loss of insects, but bees are just so interesting, it was a shame to lose them. Bees are very vulnerable to pesticides, and although we're organic, not all of our neighbors are. Most of the bee keepers in our area lost their colonies. When we have time, we will try to get into bees again.
