Added beeswax making and more uses for honey.
Bees Plus
🐝 **Make the bee system in Stardew Valley more colorful! **
I felt like the honey and bees functionality in the game wasn't developed enough (there weren't even recipes using honey!), so I made this small expansion mod.

🐝 Flying Bee (optional feature)
If you want bees to fly above your farm, you need to install a custom creature mod and put my "CustomCritters" folder into the Mods root directory.
If you are using a better hive and want to use my bee texture, you can follow the above method and have my bees.png overwrite the original file.

🔧 Compatibility
This mod edits the original beehive, so mods with similar modifications may conflict. Compatible with flowers from other mods by default.
✅ **Fully Compatible Mods:**
- Better Beehouses
- Honey Harvest Predictor
- Automate
- Beehive
- Murmur of Bees (fully integrated)
⚠️ **Cornucopia - Artisan Machines**: Compatible but will produce duplicate items, not recommended to be used simultaneously

⚙️ Configuration options
The mod also provides configuration options for dark and light workbenches to make your farm more personalized!
Make beekeeping life in Stardew Valley more interesting and practical! 🌼
Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)
- Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
- Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
- Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.
Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
