This book imparts the skills needed for perspective beekeepers to enjoy the many benefits of beekeeping. To get started one needs just a few beehives, protective clothing and some simple tools. Honeybees are a natural resource, land ownership is unnecessary and there is no daily routine of feeding, watering and medicating. Along with the reward of a crop of honey and other useful hive products, the honeybees role as a pollinator results in the finest fruit, vegetables and seed.
