My articles constitute a journal of my own learning experience in the application of the understanding of bee biology to the practice of beekeeping, and should be considered in that context. I make an effort to add important updates to articles on this site, but it may help to read the most up to date articles first.

Beekeepers Working Together

Welcome new beekeepers! In this section, you’ll find practical guidance on starting and managing hives such as first-year beekeeping essentials, beekeeping considerations, and effective Varroa mite monitoring techniques. It’s highly encouraged to read these before getting your first nuc (nucleus colony) so you can establish healthy colonies and develop sustainable beekeeping practices without having to spend so much time unlearning bad habits.
