Hong Kong is home to more than 7 million people. Amongst the high rise apartments, product designer Michael Leung founder of HK Honey, has created his own space bringing nature back into the metropolis one box at a time.

HK Honey is an organisation of Hong Kong beekeepers, artists & designers who aim to communicate the value of bees to the human food chain & the benefits of locally produced honey. With a network of bee farms and a design studio, Michael and HK Honey harvest local honey & design products and services relating to urban beekeeping.

When the sun rise, I go to work.
When the sun goes down, I take a rest.
I dig the well from which I drink.
I farm the soil which yields my food.
I share creation.
Kings can do no more.

This is a lovely little film about bees, honey and Hong Kong. One man’s vision to see 7,000,000 people stay connected to nature by connecting them to the roots of their food supply. Nicely shot amongst the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong.
