Get Rich Raising Bees!
Wow! What a great idea! Bees pay dividends THREE ways. First, you will be able to rent your hives to farmers who need bees to fertilize their crops, and bee colonies are in fierce demand! Second and Third, you will be able to make a money selling both honey and bee's wax.
More money, more money, more money. What could go wrong? Nothing! This is sure to be a terrific business for a bright, energetic young person.

No extra cash, but a really well-written resource for attracting/maintaining native pollinators is here:
