Bees and Beekeeping Basics


Keeping bees is the last thing I ever saw myself doing. Okay, maybe jumping out of an airplane is the last thing I ever saw myself doing.

Follow along as I share the pitfalls and triumphs of mastering these funny little bugs and some of the beekeeping basics, just in case you, too, want to get started with bees. In February 2023 we will prepare our hives (and ourselves) for a new adventure in beekeeping!
