Bees
Bees are cared for by Theodore, the village's beekeeper. Recruit him through Captain Brook, give him a home in your Village, then build beehives to produce honey, wax and candles.
Building a beehive
A beehive requires 15 Wood and 1 Peat. It occupies one building tile and lets Theodore look after bees. Its production menu offers the four products below.
Beehive products
The menu charges the production cost when starting a batch. Each basic batch produces one item in three days; worker bonuses may improve the result. The listed level is the beekeeper skill level required for the recipe.
| Product | Beekeeper level | Production cost (florens) | Base time | Weather | Base sale (florens) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Honey | No item-specific level requirement | 25 | 3 days | Any | 50 |
| Beeswax | 3 | 15 | 3 days | Any | 25 |
| Sunny Honey | 5 | 30 | 3 days | Heatwave | 70 |
| Candle | 7 | 100 | 3 days | Any | 150 |
These four recipes use florens rather than item ingredients. A broken hive pauses production. Sunny Honey requires an active heatwave when the job is started.
Beekeeper Display
The Crystal Garden's Beekeeper Display requires:
- 5 × Beeswax
- 5 × Candle
- 5 × Honey
- 5 × Resin

Completing this display awards 10 tokens. Resin is a collection requirement, but is not one of the beehive's four production recipes.
