Propolis
Propolis, a dark, resinous substance gathered by bees from tree sap and plant resins, plays a critical role in hive maintenance. Bees use it to seal cracks, reinforce the hive’s structure, and, most importantly, to disinfect their living space—its natural antimicrobial properties help prevent disease from spreading among the colony. For humans, propolis has become one of the most coveted bee by-products, even more valuable than pollen, due to its potent medicinal properties. Beekeepers harvest it by installing special traps that mimic small hive cracks, encouraging the bees to fill them with propolis. While yields are small, a healthy colony can provide a consistent supply. Propolis is used as a health supplement and is believed to aid in wound healing through cellular regeneration, while also offering strong antimicrobial effects. In the post-apocalyptic world of Camp Hope, where both natural remedies and advanced medical supplies are scarce, propolis is a highly prized resource—its rarity and healing potential making it essential to both barter and survival.
