The Art and Craft of Beekeeping.
This online workshop will be hosted by June Stoyer and conducted by Philip Chandler, bee expert and host of The Barefoot Beekeeper.
This is a rare opportunity to learn about ‘natural beekeeping’ in top bar hives directly from the author of The Barefoot Beekeeper.
This is a simple, practical way to have healthy and happy bees in your garden or back yard, with the possibility of your own honey harvest, but without the cost and complications associated with conventional beekeeping.
You will learn:
PART I 13th February 2011 21:00 GMT or 9pm GMT/4pm, EST (please check your time zone!)
- the nature of honeybees and their relationship with flowering plants
- the honeybee colony as super-organism
- the basics of natural beekeeping in top bar hives
PART II 20th February 2011 21:00 GMT or 9pm GMT/4pm, EST (please check your time zone!)
- the principles of natural beekeeping
- the art of negotiating with bees
- how to find bees and what to do in your first beekeeping year
“When you see for yourself how bees design, build and manage their own nest, you will realize how little they need from us as beekeepers, and how much we can learn from them.”
Cost: please offer a donation to keep Phil’s work going and his show!
This course is an opportunity to learn about ‘natural beekeeping’ in top bar hives. This is a simple, practical way to have healthy and happy bees in your garden or back yard, with the possibility of your own honey harvest, but without the cost and complications associated with conventional beekeeping.
You will learn:
- the nature of honeybees and their relationship with flowering plants
- how our own relationship with bees has developed and changed
- why the conventional methods are failing
- the principles of natural beekeeping
- the art of negotiating with bees
- how to find bees and put them in your hive

Because of the amount of resources and time Phil is donating, we ask that you make a small donation to support his efforts in the apiary world.
