Joanna Gaines is a doting mom to her five children, and though she shares special similarities with each of them, when it comes to work around the house, her youngest Crew is her go-to little man!

The former HGTV star, who has been married to husband Chip Gaines since 2003, has welcomed kids Drake, 18, Ella Rose, 16, Duke, 14, Emmie Kay, 12, and Crew, five.

Of all of them, it appears the youngest takes the most after his parents' home improvement skills, and is always up for a gardening challenge with his mom.

Joanna has often shared clips highlighting Crew's green thumb on Instagram, but her latest post might take the cake as his most impressive skill yet.

In a new video shared over the weekend, the Magnolia Network founder is seen suited up in a full beekeeper outfit, ready to harvest some honey.

However, she didn't take on the bees all by herself, and in the video montage, she included a clip of little Crew also suited up in a white jacket and protective mesh hat, paired of course with jeans and cowboy boots as he headed off to the bee farm with his mom.

In subsequent videos, Crew appears completely unafraid of the bees swarming the area, and expertly handled the panels full of honeycomb.

Hard work (and bravery!) paid off, and his mom then shared a clip of him resting by a tree with his beekeeper suit already off, and later another one where he enjoyed a spoonful of delicious fresh honey.

Crew appears to be an expert at honey harvesting!

Their honey harvest was quite bountiful, and Joanna also shared an impressive photo of countless jars of golden honey all sealed up and stacked on her kitchen counter.

"Honey Harvest on the farm 8/26," she wrote in her caption, adding: "Grateful for the ten gallons of beautiful, golden honey!"

The five-year-old later got some well-deserved rest under the shade

"Well done, you amazing little bees," she aptly noted, and capped off the post with a bee and honey pot emoji.

Joanna and her husband live in Waco, Texas, from where they have run their home renovation empire for the past 20 years.

While her youngest four kids still live at home with them, their firstborn, Drake, graduated from high school earlier this summer, and is officially starting his first year of college in the fall.
