Without going into great detail, A bee sucks nectar from a blooming flower to store it and mix the nectar with enzymes and proteins to formulate honey. They then deposit the honey in hive cells.

A simple Google search on honey will come up with sites offering more information.

It varies, but typically honey bees can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to make honey.

Bees need to process and dehydrate the nectar to ensure it becomes honey.


How do people find honey and what plants are use in making honey?

Honey is produced by bees. The bees gather the pollen and nectar of flowers and take it back to the hive, where they basically ingest it and vomit it back up as honey, which they store. They store honey to feed to their larvae (babies) and to feed on during the winter. Lots of different flowers are used by the bees to make honey, it depends what species of bee it is and what area their hive is located in.
