   Reported by Sanchita chatterjee  kolkata :  Honey is collected from a beehive, which is the home of honeybees. Inside the beehive, bees collect nectar from flowers and change it into honey. They store the honey in hexagonal wax cells called honeycombs. Beekeepers collect honey carefully so that the bees are not harmed. They use special tools and protective clothing while removing the honeycombs from the hive. The honey is then extracted, filtered, and stored in clean containers. Honey is a natural and healthy food that provides energy and is used in cooking, medicine, and daily life.
