Over the past few years on The Agri-Tourist Podcast, I’ve had the opportunity to explore so many different corners of agriculture—but this conversation brings us into a part of the food system that is both incredibly visible and often deeply misunderstood: beekeeping.
In episode #101, I sit down with Evan Reseska of Boston Honey Company, a family-run business that has grown from a single backyard hive into a multi-state operation. What I found especially compelling is how this story reflects something we see across agriculture—growth doesn’t happen in a straight line. It’s shaped by curiosity, by necessity, and by a willingness to adapt when conditions change. From shifting climates to changing forage and the realities of pollination, Evan shares what it really takes to build and sustain a business around bees.
As you listen, I invite you to think a little differently about something as simple as honey. Because behind it is a complex system—of bees, land, farmers, and decisions that all play a role in what ends up in the jar. And as always, it’s a reminder that the more we understand about where our food comes from, the more connected we become to the people and processes behind it.
