Zen Beekeeping For the Beginner Beekeeper




Zen Beekeeping For the Beginner Beekeeper

This will be the beginning of your personal journey in beekeeping:
Encouragement and enlightenment  for your choices in beekeeping.

Everyone starts as a beginner.

Here you will find no judgement, just encouragement. 
Learning beekeeping can start you on the path to zen in your busy life.

I like not wearing my bee suit, forgetting myself and getting as close to the bees lives as they will let me, remembering in the process that there is more to life than the merely human and accepting the humbling truth that bees know better than I do.

I have experienced many of the challenges faced by beekeepers and understand your fear and frustrations caring for these amazing creatures. I designed this for the new beekeeper and those that want to keep bees and harvest honey, to make available information that will allow you to learn, enjoy and thrive at keeping bees. Since I am an organic beekeeper I lean towards treatment free, holistic and natural management.
