Jason Bey is an urban farmer and the first Black beekeeper in Flint.
“Beekeeping is like social work. It’s an ever-changing process, something that’s always happening that you’re going to learn from,” Bey said.
Bey’s journey to small business ownership started after an injury caused severe nerve damage. He struggled to find employment, but while on the job hunt during the pandemic, he said he thought, “Where does honey come from, and how is it made? And can I do beekeeping in Michigan?”
