Priya Chakravarti

Food journalist and former restaurant critic who wandered into beekeeping through a feature on terroir in urban honey and discovered that bee people are significantly more interesting than chef people. Priya covers the intersection of honey and food culture, varietal honey tasting, and the culinary world's relationship with pollinators. She writes about bees the way a wine critic writes about grapes — the bees are the talent, everything else is infrastructure.
