"Admiring nature's handiwork, Dave Stomberg basks in the glow of a frame full of honey. Beekeepers shave off the comb's wax seal before they extract the honey and pour it into barrels for shipment to wholesalers, who filter and market it. 'You never know how much honey you'll make,' says Dave, who hustles to keep his bees healthy and prays for the warm, wet days that grow nectar-laden flowers."
