Quests who is a beekeeper

Dr Oz and Daymon John (Shark Tank) both have bees.
They were on Oz's show about the health benifits of honey.
Let's start another list of famous people who now keep bees.

Ok. I heard Flea from the Chili Peppers and Morgan Freeman keep bees. Or, they just have a lot of money and someone else keeps them for them? Not sure. lol

Henery Fonda did, Martha Stewart, and Scarlett Johansson

Did Peter Fonda keep bees or just play a beekeeper in "Ulee's Gold"?

>You left off Michael Bush.

I'm not a famous person who is a beekeeper.  Ask anyone on the street who I am and none of them will know me.  Maybe if you ask a beekeeper they may have heard of me...

Those cacti are incredible! We took our camper down to AZ once and pulled over to sleep amongst them. It rained over night and that super earthy smell was one of the best smells I've ever experienced. Isn't there moisture in them though? The bees don't mind that? They build colonies in them? Is that common?

After birds bore into them the raw area heals over even when the center becomes hollow and many critters use them. Once enough damage is done though the cactus will fall and likely die. I have only seen a few hives in cactus here, most are in caves and rock crevasses

Daymon John - Shark Tank

They just played the re-run on the fake HONEE the other night. Apple syrup called honee. Wonder what people probably think they are buying? And the pitch was to save the bees. And after John's made some of the comments he made in the segment... well I am not too sure  But I guess I also THINK I am a beekeeper
