Buzzlegum's are a simple pinata. 2 buttercups to appear, 4 to visit, and 6 to stay as a resident. To romance dance them, feed the Buzzlegum 2 of any pieces of fruit.

Bees! Can't abide 'em. Thankfully the Pinata Island variety seems easy-going, churning out prized honey for anyone who offers the right incentives. Not to say they can't still sting, mind. To retrieve this precious substance, buy a Honey Hive from Willy Builder. Send a Buzzlegum to it to make honey. But before you can get more honey, you must refuel the bee by having it snack on a daisy. To bypass the daisy step, equip the it with a Beekeeper Hat accessory to get them to automatically produce honey.

The friendly buzz of the hard working Buzzlegums should be a welcome sound in a garden. Of course you have to keep them happy or they may start using their sting, but with patience you can get them to make delicious honey.

Honey production

The Buzzlegum can produce honey. Simply buy a Honey Hive from Willy Builder, then send your Buzzlegum into it. When your honey has been made, you need to feed the Buzzlegum a Daisy to prepare it to make honey again. The Beekeeper Hat accessory effect prompts your Buzzlegum to produce honey automatically.



Commonly asked questions
How do I get the Buzzlegums to make honey?

Make sure you've bought a Honey Hive from Willy Builder -- it's in the Special Buildings section, and isn't the same building as the Buzzlegum house. Once a Buzzlegum is ready to produce honey, direct your Buzzlegum into it. After it's been through the Hive, direct it to a Daisy to prepare it to make honey again.

Buying a Beekeeper Hat accessory for your Buzzlegum will automate the honey production process. View thread


Do buzzlegums make honey? I direct the bees to the hive but the hive doors won't open?

There are a few reasons why this may happen:

  • Your garden is full of produce. Sell some to make room for more.
  • The Buzzlegum isn't ready to produce honey. Direct it to a daisy.
  • The Honey Hive needs plenty of room around it -- it has both front and back doors, and if either door is blocked, the Buzzlegums won't enter.
