Morgan Freeman

Morgan Freeman is so concerned about honeybees that he turned his 124-acre ranch in Mississippi into a bee refuge, where he planted hundreds of flowering trees, bought 26 beehives, and kept a gardener to look after them.

He made the disclosure at The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in July last year. Freeman, who is known for his environmental activism, isn't the first celebrity to take up the hobby - he follows in the footsteps of late actor Henry Fonda and lifestyle queen Martha Stewart, while “2 Broke Girls” actress Beth Behrs and her boyfriend, Mad Men star “Michael Gladis”, have also become amateur beekeepers.
