 | | Schwartz, 48, is deputy manager of the Yad Mordechai Apiary, Israel's largest honey-making business, and is secretary of Kibbutz Yad Mordechai, an agricultural cooperative whose members were making honey even before it was established in 1943 by Polish settlers on the shores of Ashkelon, north of Gaza. |
 | | Between February and April each year, Israel's spring, employees of Yad Mordechai take 6000 hives on the rounds of the country's orchards from north to south so the bees can feed on the nectar of blossoms from orange, lemon, and eucalyptus trees, cotton plants, wildflowers, avocado, and plum trees, and hyssop plants. |
 | | Yad Mordechai hopes to create a honey culture in Israel and abroad. |
