Beginning Organic Beekeeping with Richard
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009
Beginning beekeepers practice using the smoker.
This fall Richard launched a four week class called Beginning Organic Beekeeping. With thirty years experience in organic beekeeping and producing artisan honey- the demand to learn from Richard is high! Twelve lucky people are in the class now and there is already a list for the next class. With bees under attack by the varroa mite and other diseases, having a few managed hives in many backyards is a good way to help perpetuate Hawaii’s honey bees.
