General QuestGammer has your salve ready, but she cautions that it will only last a short while.
STEPS:
1) Find a wild hive before the salve dries. Gammer says
"I expect you will find beehives in the woods southeast of Tuckborough. Find a big one for Polo and take it to him at his meadow nearby."
To get to the hives, head southeast from Tuckborough. There is a bear area not far from the The Great Willow tree, and you will see several trees with the 'wild hive' on them (34.3s, 69.7w). Double-click to pick one up, and then a timer starts.
2) Bring the hive to Polo Proudfoot, a short run north from the hive area (33.5s, 69.8w). The hive may attract aggro from bears, so be careful—you cannot fight while holding it. Your quest will automatically update once you get within range of Polo.
3) Talk to Polo Proudfoot.
4) After you speak with them and select "Finish Now", you get your coin reward, XP, and Beekeeper's Hood, Beekeeper's Robes or Hive Tending Boots.
