y&y honey

In 2007, Suzuki Yoshiaki began beekeeping on the rooftop of Suzusho Tekko metalworks in Mizue, Edogawa City, leading to the start of the y&y honey commercial brand. In 2010, he expanded to a second apiary in Ichihara, Chiba Prefecture, and began seasonal hive transfers. Today, the honey is harvested at three sites: Mizue (Edogawa City), Ichihara (Chiba Prefecture), and Fuji (Shizuoka Prefecture). Since 2013, Suzuki has also practiced natural farming and hunting near the Ichihara site, living a dual-location lifestyle.
