BEEKEEPING

---

Reportage on a beekeeper in Haute-Savoie, France, who produces organic mountain honey. Arnaud has 250 bee hives managed organically. The hives are moved throughout flowering, limiting the risk of coming into contact with pesticides. The upper parts of the hive, full of frames filled with honey, are taken to the workshop. To start with, the wax cap has to be removed to allow the honey to flow out. The frames are then placed in large spinners which extract the honey without damaging the frames. They can then be reused in a hive, without the bees having to rebuild a wax structure.
