Q: Do bees get harmed during honey collection?

A: No. We Bee-keep ethically to ensure the bees have more than enough honey for themselves. Bees already produce more than is needed, we just take the excess. During collection, frames are removed gently, at a calm part of the day, and with tools that avoid crushing bees. The honey is extracted from the comb and the empty comb is returned so the bees dint have to rebuild everything from scratch — saving them energy and stress. Healthy bees = Better Honey.
