I wrote this book for people who are practical learners, which sounds ridiculous considering this is a book, but it’s written to help you start beekeeping and give you the basic knowledge to do so. When I started learning more about bees, I could find any books that got to the point and told me what I needed to know. That’s when my passion grew to create a book that is hopefully easy to follow and applicable in your first few years of beekeeping. This book is short and sweet, 68 pages and small enough to carry with you while beekeeping.

Chapters include:

1. What’s inside the hive

2. Equipment

3. Where to start? i.e. ordering bees and setting up your apiary

4. Swarming

5. Chapter Honey

6. Overwintering
