The Barefoot Beekeeper - P J Chandler - Sustainable Beekeeping Book [MrChatterbox]

The Barefoot Beekeeper - P J Chandler



This book is for the prospective, beginner and experienced beekeeper,
who wants a simple method of looking after a few hives for small-scale
production of honey, beeswax, pollen and propolis – or just for the fun
of having some bees around.
This does not pretend to be a complete work on beekeeping and it
assumes that at least some knowledge of the subject has already been
acquired from other sources, or that you are prepared to read more
widely. There are links to beekeeping bibliographies on my web site.
You will learn most from your own experiences, but these take time to
acquire and you should take every opportunity to learn from others –
especially others' mistakes – as this will save you time, money and
frustration.
My aim is to demonstrate that beekeeping does not need to be difficult,
time-consuming, expensive or needlessly complicated and that almost
anyone – including people with disabilities and mobility problems – can
learn about, practise and benefit from this fascinating and absorbing
activity. Everything needed for 'barefoot beekeeping' can be made at
home using hand tools and only basic skills.
It is written by an English beekeeper and while the principles are
universal, local climate, flora, seasonal weather conditions and
experience will dictate variations in your approach that should be
followed more assiduously than anything written here.
