Beekeeper

How about adding a beekeeper (similar to Rose and Ernest) to harvest honey?

I like that idea. More people to actually roam the farm. :-)

Neat idea.

or maybe we could all buy a https://www.honeyflow.com/ :)

Since Greg is the lumberjack, I think it would be great to hang some bee-netting over Mary's hat and hire her as a beekeeper. Bees are one of the shortest timed production "animals". Alternatively, Rose could quit offering help collecting eggs since eggs have never in the history of Hay Day been a commodity in short supply in the DD and substitute beekeeping.

I thought of our pigs when I saw this...

"The extraction process is so gentle, the bees barely notice at all."

I think this should be added to Rose's or Ernest's tasks, especially if they are going to cost quite a bit to hire.

If Rose gets the additional task of collecting nectar, it would be great if Ernest could make honey, beeswax, and candles.

If everything becomes something harvested or made by a helper then realistically we are running nothing but legit bot farms. It really takes away the resource management aspect of the game then.

I see only one issue: some people manage their bees using the number of axes they have. No thanks to automated bees for me. Good idea though.

Good point. However if it were me and I paid diamonds to purchase the beekeeper's services, I would make sure I had enough axes first for him to do an accurate job. It would be totally worth it in my opinion. :)
