The beekeepers we met do not feed the bees with honey. Instead, they are moving the hives in different places, close to different fields. In this way, the bees can help themselves with different flowers/crops/plants every time, and at the producer level, different honnies are constantly made. I like this idea, to be honest.

There's still a certain danger for the bees, they can attack another hive and rob their honey for example.
A good beekeeper has to regularly check for signs of infection in the hive, that's absolutely necessary.
I guess they do that (since they are producing honeys for years), but this, I didn't check myself (I am by far not an expert and what matters to me is to buy local, and promote reasoned cultures).
