Instant Resources The Barefoot Beekeeper
is a revolutionary book about 'sustainable', chemical-free beekeeping, showing how it can be simplified and made accessible
to all, including people with disabilities, as with this method there is no heavy lifting involved.
The author
strips away all unnecessary complication and confusion, demonstrating that 'modern' beekeeping methods are largely
to blame for the poor state of health of the honeybee and that the commercialization of beekeeping marked the start of the
disease and parasite problems that honeybees have been trying to deal with ever since.
The author advocates small-scale,
sustainable beekeeping, with minimal disturbance to the bees and more time spent observing and learning from them. This system
shows how you can make everything you need to keep bees yourself, using recycled materials and simple tools: you do not need
to buy any additional equipment at all, nor do you need synthetic medications or other chemicals.
