The Treatment-free Beekeeping Podcast

Today, I talk to Scott, a friend of the Treatment-Free Beekeepers group on Facebook who is a freshman beekeeper in Central Arkansas.  As a former Arkansas beekeeper, I have some tips and tricks for him.

Meet Anita in Massachusetts.  She is a treatment-free beekeeper who has accomplished much in the last few years.  She talks with me about the challenges and successes she is is having keeping bees in the northeast.

This week, I talk to Marlene in Maine who just started keeping bees this year and has a lot of questions about how to get started treatment-free.

Back from vacation.  In this podcast, I answer a bunch of questions including some on winter prep, equipment, and a proposal for a new format!

In this episode, I talk about what to do to help the bees along with mites during the first year or two and then I talk about some preparations that can be made for winter.

In this week's installment, I talk about "Expansion Model Beekeeping" and how that leads into my method of raising queens and creating nucs.

In this first episode, I answer a couple questions submitted by users of the Facebook Group.
