Butterbee Chestnut Honey Butter

Butterbee Forest and Village are located near the fringe of the Northern Deserts. The ground beneath the trees has a light covering of sand, which is swept away with brooms several times a day to stop the sand from piling up and suffocating the tree roots. The village is located right next to an oasis. It is a place where trade caravans would often pass by, which is a good thing for the Butterbee villagers, as otherwise, they live in a fairly secluded location.   The inhabitants of Butterbee mostly work with the production of a comestible named Butterbee Chestnut Honey Butter. It is a sweet and salty butter made out of the chestnuts that is harvested from the chestnut trees that grow in the forest, and the honey that they collect from the beehives built into the trees. It has a very rich taste, and can serve as simply honey, or as simple butter, or as both at once. How the Honey Butter is made to its taste and consistency is a long-held secret that nobody but the villagers are allowed to know.   The Butterbee Chestnut Honey Butter is a very popular addative to bread and tea, as well as spice for cooking and baking, particularly among the desert dwellers, but also in other regions of the Somer Plate. This has allowed the villagers to survive solely on producing and selling their honey butter. The price is fairly high, and traders can sell it at a higher price the further they go from Butterbee village. Some ask and some pay exhorbitant amounts for one single jar of it. With time the villagers learned this, and some would become merchants to sell the honey butter elsewhere, pulling in even more money for the village. They're a wealthy village, but they mainly use the money that they earn on the upkeep of the forest and the bees. One would not know when visiting, if unaware of where they were, that the village was one of the wealthiest in the world.
