The 16-year-old from Castroville has started a new journey with his new local business. Anderson's idea came after his experience with other beekeepers. The teen would take as many calls as possible when it came to bee removal jobs. Though Anderson knew this would take some time, he kept his idea going. Now, Anderson is the proud business owner of BeeSpace.
