Ernesto Garcia, a farmer and vegetable specialist, dedicates himself to the production of chicuarote peppers, endemic to the San Gregorio Atlapulco area in the Xochimilco district of Mexico City, since he is a child. He says he begins sowing seeds on a chinampa between March and April, and within a period of approximately 4 to 5 months, they reach their peak harvest time, allowing them to harvest different sizes and shades of peppers. Half a kilo of chicuarote peppers costs $35 pesos. Ernesto asserts that one of the threats to the chicuarote chile begins with its growing location and climatic conditions: excess water can ruin the crop, or excessive heat due to humid conditions impacts the chile's growth and spiciness. The presence of some chile predators, such as gophers and insect larvae like ladybugs, also has a negative impact. The chicuarote chile remains a family heirloom because the region's oldest inhabitants are the ones who master recipes that include this ingredient and share them with their children and grandchildren. A characteristic dish of the chicuarote chile is salsa, which can be made raw, boiled, or fried, using onion and a large garlic clove in olive oil, tomatoes, and salt, all ground in a mortar or blender.

Influenced by her mother and father and by chance upon seeing a beehive, Martha Flores Garcia, originally from Xochimilco, decides to become a beekeeper. She works with hives and bees for about 20 years in her apiary between the borders of Mexico City and the State of Morelos. Through the breeding and care of the bees, and once they complete the process, which lasts about three weeks to a month, wearing a mask, gloves, overalls, and a smoker with pine cone, Martha collects honey, jelly, and wax to make and obtain various products such as propolis, pollen, cosmetics, essences, nutritional supplements, chocolates, candies, among others. Approximately 60,000 bees live in each hive and/or breeding chamber. According to the National Atlas of Bees and Derivatives, the word ''bee'' is the common name for insects belonging to the superfamily Apoidea of the order Hymenoptera (membrane-winged). Currently, there are more than 20,000 species of bees worldwide, classified into nine families, six of which are present in Mexico, with more than 1,800 described species. To raise awareness about the importance of pollinators, the threats they face, and their contribution to sustainable development, the United Nations declares May 20th as World Bee Day. The main objective is to protect bees and other pollinators so they can make a significant contribution to solving problems related to the world's food supply and ending hunger in developing countries.
