We meet you with two families who have been raising bee colonies for years and their imagination knows no bounds.
"We have hives and bees are part of our life. We offer all kinds of bee products, and for the first time, Christmas toys made of beeswax, candles for the holidays, and also creams made of bee products for minor burns, said Bogomila Atanasova and Emil Patov. They take care of 350 hives. Their favorite honey is linden.
"The most unusual is cream-honey with dried fruits, here we offer real quality, that's why people should buy bee products from the beekeeper, not from the big chain stores, he told "Night Horizon" Angel Iliev. His family keeps 157 bee families.
Iliev pointed out that the state should further support the sector, because the purchase price is very low and people stop working in this area.
Both families are adamant that bees should be protected and people should use bee products more often.
Cream-honey with cocoa and hazelnut, with fruit, immunomix - this is the "bomb" of immunostimulators! Take one spoon in the morning on an empty stomach, after 3 years of age.
