My parents started keeping bees a couple years ago. The hobby quickly became a buisness. I was really surprised when they told me that their local Whole Foods was their biggest retail outlet, besides what they personally sell at farmer's markets. Good on WF for supporting the local bee keepers!

What's your preferred treatment for stings?

I was helping my parents tend their hives a couple years ago in a borrowed suit that was too large. I ended up with many stings around my ankles and a couple on one knee. The joint pain that followed for the next week was unbelievable! As much as I enjoy the idea of beekeeping and would like to try it, the experience soured me pretty significantly.
