Amish Bee-Keeping Secrets: How To Become A Professional Bee-Keeper

For the Amish, bee-keeping began as a way to put food on the table. They have watched it become a big time business with the popularity of the use of honey. Earlier honey was not a very popular edible thing as people used sugar and molasses for sweetening their food, but once they found that honey was much cheaper, beekeeping became popular and was taken up by many Amish as an agricultural business. However, today, people worry about the safety of the honey that is collected because of all the pesticides that are used. With organic foods being more popular and a movement by organic food growers, Amish honey is growing in popularity. The demand is for honey that is free of pesticides. Also, bee-keeping families supply bees wax for candle making and cosmetics to other manufac- turers of these items. Bee-keeping is a growing and prospering business for the Amish. In this book, you will learn the Secrets of the Amish honey producers.
