Pati is in the magic town of Mani to learn about something sacred to the Mayans - bees and honey. A cooperative of women who protect the endangered Melipona, a stingless bee native to Yucatan, invites her to join in a Mayan energy cleansing ritual involving bunuelos made with Melipona honey. Then she visits a family living by the traditional "Solar Maya," meaning they grow everything they eat.
