Once you&#8217;ve harvested your natural honeycomb from your Warr&#233; (or other kind of top bar) beehive, it&#8217;s time to  get some of that goodness into jars!

Yacon (also known as ground apple) grows very easy in our (sub-tropical) climate &#8212; one plant produces many rhizomes for division and re-planting.
