In honor of Rosh Hashanah, we went out into the field to learn more about the production of honey in the Flower of the Galilee apiary in Moshav Manot
Nega Reuven, a beekeeper, honey producer and specialist in raising and marketing queens, accompanied us on a fascinating tour of the farm where she raises bees and makes the honey.
In the video before you, you can watch the honey production route, from the beehive, through the honey machine to the honey that appears in a variety of flavors, according to the nature of the blossoms that feed the bees in each season of the year and according to the types of flowers.
How do you grow queens for the purpose of marketing them to beekeepers?
What do bee larvae eat?
How do you peel off the honey wax?
How to "squeeze a honeycomb"
Does each type of flower have a different flavored honey?
And why does quality honey crystallize and not liquid?
All these questions and many more are answered in a video by beekeeper Nega Reuven, who manages the apiary and honey factory in Moshav Manot.
