- Zach & Zoe Sweet Bee Farm owners Kam and Summer Johnson started keeping bees after learning how raw and local honey could benefit their son, who suffered with asthma and seasonal allergies. After studying how to best keep bees, harvest honey, and keep up their own bee farm, they were able to sell their local honey to restaurants around NYC, and even have a shop in Chelsea Market. zachandzoe.co/

Bruhhhh, that last bee on screen ATE ittt.. How you gonna do my manzz like that Eater editor. He's the laughing stock of the hive now. Even the neighboring hives are buzzin'. I told him to contact his bee lawyers to seek compensation for mental and emotional damages.. Good luck in bee court, Eater!
After reading this comment, I was just waiting till the end to see what this was about, and I LAUGHED SO HARD.
I live in Chelsea right near the Chelsea market. Who knew? That’s what a lockdown will do to you. Glad I found this video and will check your store out. We need to support small businesses more than ever now.
Master larry's honeycomb was so clear and smooth ive never seen anything like it.
Honestly I damn near drooled a bit when I see how perfect it was 😩
I absolutely love this guy. His voice is so soothing.
Exactly
I've never seen like a beekeeping video where someone actually gets stung
It stops hurting eventually. And most of the bees we keep are docile in nature.
Salute from a beekeeper from Poland!
From my polish roommate i heard that there are a lot of beekeepers in Poland so I'm not surprised you're here haha
@@gwendolynsheperd9011 just read or look for photos about "bartnictwo"
@@gwendolynsheperd9011and there are lot of youtubing beekeepers.
Hi. So why polish honey is so cheap in the UK compared to other honey?
@@LOGLISCICRISTIANO I'd say anything in UK that's from Poland is cheap. Unfortunatelly workforce as well...
You know you gangsta when you can handle your bees without suiting up.
It depends on the breed of the bees, some breeds are extremely calm some not.
if you keep bees and never get stung you can build up an extreme allergy to it so its best to just get stung every now and again.
You don’t need to suit up unless you have a wasp problem like he shows you in the video. Be nice if people understood bees
Finding a guy is the hardest part of lots of careers.
You got to find a guy who knows a guy.
Humanity. We are like that. Makes it tough if you're jumping across boundaries, but if someone is open, you can find the guy.
Not prostitution. There's always a guy.
Yup that’s why trying to ensure equal opportunity is beneficial for all of us.
Power couple, they're exactly where I'd want to be heading in life! Supportive relationship, working hard and they are their own bosses, they own a nice patch of land and have cute kids. What more could you ask for in life?
Hard to see people that cooperate with each other
@@DeliberativeDegenerate hahaahhahaha
So I'm eating bee vomit. Nice
Scammers
I went to the pet shop and asked for 12 bees, The clerk counted out 13 bees and handed them over.
“You’ve given me one too many” I said.
*That one is a free-bee!*
Lmfa
Dad, I'm changing the wifi password in the morning.
Why aren’t you hosting The Tonight Show?
😏
Your funny
This was so wholesome! Please bring back more of Uncle Larry! Love to hear more from him!! 🧡
This dude must be so used to living with one enflamed hand
Everyone reacts different on stings, I feel it for 2-3 hours and then it's done. Others swell up for 1-2 days.
I think his body gets used to it by now. I remember when I got stung the first time I had a mild fever and my ear swelled up for over 2 weeks now after around 2 years when a bee stings me the swelling subsides after half a day.
@@ualuuanie I use bee sting on my Di©k when its time to swellup and spoon. Its just like natural viagara! 😹
@@spookynuts7148 LOL better not let your wife hear that or she will have a bee hive under your bed to use as and when she needs some of that.
A smart man will probably wear a suit. That's how we saw people harvesting honey in our farm house.
This guy literally has a dream job
Doubt this is his main gig.
It look like he had a lot of money to start with.
@Tom Evers But first you need to know a guy who knows a guy.
@@recoil53 why do you need to know a guy you start from one hive and split continually year after year
@@aaronho4242 Watch the video.
Very cool, interesting stuff, love seeing a family business succeed.
Bless our beekeepers! Very important job.
They are liars.
10:23 damn he almost got in better luck next time 😂
LMAO 🤣
We all love honey 🤤 gotta keep the bee's safe.
I LOVE seeing others’ videos about bees! I know I love my girls 🐝🐝 and videoing their journeys and honey production.
Fascinating... They seem to be great couple and good advert for bee keeping.
I love that they are local to us. So will definitely order from them.
Larry: I am not a big fan of hugs.
Kam: Bring it in, we're doing lots of hugs today!
:D
Super interesting new show! Bees are so cool!
by heck this has to be one of the mostest educational videos from eater ' thank u dudes !!!!!!!!
I used to love beekeeping with my parents. Fresh honey is so delicious. Go into a hive with shorts, a t shirt & a mask
I visited your Chelsea market stand! So cool!
What a great family!! And an amazing daughter for doing the research and wanting to help her brother out! And then the parents being so supportive of her findings.. a very inspirational family shown here!!!
I started eating local, raw honey regularly. I help support our local bee keepers & it has helped a ton with my allergies! My favorite is the father/son duo. Son is 10 and is so passionate & knowledgeable.
I have a hive myself and it’s a really interesting experience, it takes more work and money to get started than you think. You can’t just get them and forget about it, books and advice are essential! Especially if you live in states with a long cold winter!
I’m really enjoying this series
Very cool black owned business.
@@robotman5435 there are far too many of them to be cool, fool. Your name suits you.
@@robotman5435 In South Africa it is the same, the disparity between the rich and poor is often denoted by race as well. You are able to see a lot of white owned businesses but not black businesses. This is due to the fact that a lot of white people grew up with money while black people most likely grew up from a destitute background - therefore, funding is an issue for many black businesses and that is one of the reasons why you do not see black businesses often. I am not too familiar with the USA, but this is something that a lot of black businesses in South Africa go through.
OP isn't saying white businesses are bad, but you can pretty much infer that the rise in black businesses is good because 1) black people are starting to have more money to create their own businesses 2) more black people are getting more opportunity. You must note that commending another group of people never equates to bashing another group of people. It is incredibly important to support local businesses, especially during these times.
william you are trap on victim mentality I bet you this man that owned honey business don't think same as your, what is the difference between you and him? he work hard
@@coffeebot3526 sorry I don’t speak stupid.
@@williamwoody7607 I can't believe the amount of people who are blind or are purposely ignoring (like getting all offended about) the whole message behind "black-owned businesses" 🙈. While it's not to say white businesses are not amazing, I think it's amazing more black people are getting more opportunity, are earning more money, and are getting represented in more healthy/positive ways (I dunno if that makes sense but basically I support your comments).
I seen them on a small business commercial that shows national. Glad to see them doing well.
Just made a purchase I love honey and I love black-owned businesses who put love into the things they create. Can’t wait to get it in the mail.
I haven’t seen a bee in forever, I used to see them quite regularly.
I love this. Also, Jersey is my home state so this makes me very proud.
My family been doing this 50 plus years I love bee keeping
this guy is so chill and honest
Shalom❣️ Thank you sooo much Family for doing "You" & spreading the goodness of the earth's creatures‼️ Thank you too "Uncle" for not being selfish but, really teaching your prodigy the way of bees. Gosh, I've been amazed hearing that without bees we wouldn't have this or that, that is vital to living. This story was totally interesting & praise YAHWEH it pulls you in to want to know more.
💞Great team work Family, the Uncle in spirit & his wife; along with the "bee to honey" community. May Yahweh expand your territories & honor you for it. Thanks & Shalom‼️❣️‼️
This is such a great story- what an interesting path. Love his relationship with his mentor and how pragmatic his wife was about the realities of working with family.
And of course- his poor wrist man 😬
Gives a little hope for humanity. But the news destroys that quickly.
Boy am I happy to see GLOVES being used!
10:24 The bee knocks itself out. Flew head first into the hive 💀😂😂😂
What a nice family. Very cool to put yourself out there like he does.
So inspiring. This is amazing. One love
Loving This!!!!! Great work Guys!
This video got real, is what we need these days
Native New Yorker from Bensonhurst Brooklyn born and raised 🇮🇹 💯% i was lucky enough to be in Chelsea market during the summer and i got some of the raw honey and raw honey with blueberries and honeycomb absolutely delicious especially the honeycomb id never had raw honeycomb before its phenomenal
Kam speaks with such passion! Impressive family.
I really like these kind of videos !
Is it possible to not sort of fall in love with someone when they are talking about their passion?
Love this comment!
I can't wait for spring! I miss my girls!!! 🐝
This was a very inspiring watch and just all around bubble of positivity. I thoroughly enjoyed it… (wishing them continued success)… As a beginner in the Ag space I wish they could have mentioned more of the financials involved both production and sells.
Please more videos with this type of content 😁
That's a wonderful family and wonderful bonds we wanna-bee
Life doesn’t get any better than this.
Cool video! Good luck Zach and Zoe.
10:23 Missed the landing pad... MAYDAY!!
4:17 That was oddly satisfying to watch!
Cool story and well done. Peace from an Alaska Bee keeper.
Such a beautiful family 🧡
Just purchased 2 jars of honey from Zach and Zoe. Looking forward to getting them. I saw them on Shark Tank making big moves. Loved seeing such a beautiful family owned business!!
Wow! This is interesting! He knows his stuff!
Zach & Zoe ginger honey is the secret ingredient in my shortbread recipe. (it's also great on a spoon right out of the jar and for soothing a tummy)
I've been buying that Golden Blossom Honey(probable BS)for years, I' so glad the algorithms brought you my way bro,! I just bought 2 jars on Amazon. PEACE!!!
This makes me pumped. Im starting beekeeping with my father in ethiopia this year
Good luck
@@monkmodemalik8225 Thanks
@@hollywood84660
I might be visiting Ethiopia in the near future.
Let me know when you get your honey company up and running.
Wholesome video
That is amazing, as a beekeeper I would never believe they could have pulled that off.
Why not? 🤔
I wanna buy honey now! I have so much appreciation on why it so expensive now since bees takes 1 year to harvest the honeycomb
In Greece we make also dark honey. Not so sweet. And that's good for people who don't eat sugar or have diabetes.But yeah this honey seems wonderful too.
so this is the buzz around town how Honey and Wax are made :-D
Every modern farmer is so smart! =)
Hi happy to see people that look like me in Bee keeping, Hi Hebrew Family.
I think it cool what you have done, keep it going.
What a cool family!
Bees and Bee keepers are cool!
Awesome story!!!
Love the partnership
GREAT VIDEO
Loved this
I love my girls! 🐝🐝🐝 always a fun time and unique experience every single time. So far, other than me (doing stupid stuff) no one visiting (I have tours) has ever gotten stung.
My little little Lowcountry ChickaBees 🐝🐝
Wow beautiful home of bee ..Ita so many ..nice and good
That honey comb looks sooo delicious 🤤🤤😋
I really love honey.
I love their honey
This guy is like. "oh I got stung..so like I was say".. lol
Awesome..Natural medicine for astma
Amazing
Guy just casually walks around with his arms fully exposed
BEAUTIFUL ❣️❣️❣️
Congratulations!
Beautiful awesome work, do you train matters bees? where are you located?
Have a 3rd kid. Name not on main product. Grows up to be a super villain! Haha jk great video
We need many more bee keepers. Without bees, we are all doomed.
This should have been sponsored by "honey"
Bees are not the only animal that makes it's own food. Besides the fantastically obvious humans, leaf cutter ants also make their own food.
Nice honey video
Definitely will order. Buy lots of West Coast honey.
I love to see Black owned businesses thriving. Great story!
How do they stop the wax getting into the final honey product?
You filter it with meshes. You do a rough one for the bigger particles, and a finer one for the smaller stuff
Uncle Larry!!
Me: I thought this video was about bees not cutting onions
Black bee keepers!! We love to see it! 😍😍
What race has to do with anything? They keep bees all over the world goofy ass
Hes not black. Hes dark brown
Black businesses are great. I honestly want to support them.
Racists everywhere
I started cooking with raw honey today... Tastes damn good on sandwiches and such
that last bee at the end though... XD she missed the entrance lol
Lolol that’s so funny XD
