Where Near the Columbia River, Oregon
When 1992
Photographer Maria Stenzel

"Ferrying hives with a forklift, Vince Vazza positions his bees to pollinate a cherry orchard near Oregon's Columbia River. Farmers insist the bees arrive just as the cherry buds burst, so Vince monitors the trees to ensure on-time delivery. Months later such diligence bears fruit."

—From "America’s Beekeepers: Hives for Hire," May 1993, National Geographic magazine
