Better Beekeeping

The skilled beekeeper who is interested in producing not only varietal and artisan honeys, but bees, queens, pollen, propolis, and simply honey without the frills needs a reliable, comprehensive source for his continued education. Our Backyard Beekeeper series has created the need in the market for this book: how do beekeepers take the next step towards mastering colony management, marketing, making money from their hobby, and more? The core themes of this intermediate beekeeping book are: managing and growing your workforce, making sure your queens always get the royal treatment, how to keep bees seasonally, how to build a better colony, and how to grow that colony.
