Bees

ebook US$15.00

I am currently changing the delivery system for my ebooks. Please email me from the 'Contact Me' form if you wish to purchase this ebook.

All gardeners know that bees are crucial to any garden, without them there would be no garden.

I am privileged to know Miles Stair, a beekeeper from the US and his wife Bette. Miles has won awards for his hives, set world records, taught thousands in the art, written articles, spoken at seminars, been advisor and mentor to newcomers and more especially for us they have written ‘the’ definitive book called ‘The Honey Factory’.

I find the depth of information contained staggering, this book would be beneficial for anyone starting out, right through to the more experienced.

It contains diagrams, drawings, photos, personal stories, hints, ideas, thoughts, an annual diary, storage ideas and much much more. You really do need to read the list of chapters to get more of an idea on what they are offering here in this ebook - over 160 pages!!!

Perhaps you are keen on constructing your own hive , have a look here and find a free diagram on how to make a hive stand , also see how Miles’ keeps his hives dry during the damp, wet winter months. See here for some tips and advice on what to do when you have a hive swarm .

And something for all the gardeners out there. Not sure which chemicals to avoid? Have a look here at this FREE list of products NOT to use. Make sure you are using products that keep them pollinating.

Bee sting venom therapy is one topic that always arises. Find out what Miles and Bette recommend. Have a look here to see what damage local black bears can do to hives .

Humans have a long and colourful history with these wonderful insects, we have used bees in warfare over the ages and certainly there history does reveal how hives can be used as the family safe.

This book is written as a direct result of their own experience. You can be guaranteed that everything in this book has been tried, tested and where possible improved upon. This represents decades of their life spent with these astonishing insects.

I am sure that anyone will learn much from the vast and extensive knowledge Miles and Bette have shared here in The Honey Factory.


WORLD RECORD HONEY PRODUCTION

These two hives of mine produced a combined 645 pounds of honey in 1995. This is a World Record for two hives sitting side by side, it was reported in the June, 1996 "American Bee Journal".

The March photo shows the hives on the covered hive stand I built to keep the hives dry in our rainy Pacific Maritime climate.
