Goods

Honey is Not much of a problem.

Honey ham and Honey nuggets are easy to make, provided you reguarly go to the Spider nests to get Monster meat.

Honey takes a long time to spoil if put in an ice box.

Taffy Is easy to make.

Bads

In winter, Production of Honey is stopped entirely.

bees might kill a player if they are not ready.

(RoG) In spring, bees are hostile.

How to make use of Your bees.

In winter, use a birdcage to make meatballs instead of Honey ham and Honey nuggets.

Also consider Stocking honey. Honey Spoils in 40 Days, meaning it has a long shelf life.

Making a beekeeper hat (8 silk, 1 rope) Will reduce damage by bees, making them less Hostile.

Gathering honey will make bees inside the Box attack you, so wait until most are outside before harvesting.
