Something to bee thoughtful about

[dianeduane]

We take them for granted. We shouldn't.

During my visit to Tapp’s apiary just outside Chapel Hill, I asked him, "I'm wondering, does fifteen billion dollars worth of food a year depend on a bunch of retired hobbyists?"

I fully expected him to tell me I was exaggerating. Tapp turned his head, looked me in the eye and with a straight face said, "Well, yeah."

Something about retiring to take up bee keeping in Sussex wasn't it?
