Beekeeping is more than a hobby — it’s a craft and passion shared by people from all walks of life. Beekeeping: A Practical Guide for Considerate Beekeepers blends the first-hand knowedge of experienced beekeepers, Clare Densley and Martin Hann of Buckfast Abbey, with field-tested methods to help beekeepers better understand the complex nature of honey bee society and foster a more harmonious relationship with their colonies. It delves into the complexities of swarming, unpredictable bee behaviour, and practical solutions when things go awry. Keeping bees is an opportunity for continual learning and acquiring new skills, and this book is designed to accompany beekeepers on their journey of discovery.

Arvustused

I wish this book had been available when I first started beekeeping. It will make a good companion alongside the hive, rich in information and suggestions, and will serve as a practical manual not just for the journeyman beekeeper. -- Graham Kingham, The Journal of the Devon Beekeepers Association. * The Journal of the Devon Beekeepers Association. * I think that all beekeepers, no matter how experienced can benefit from their (Clare Densley & Martin Hann) wise advice. Thoroughly recommend and good value. -- Norman Carreck, Beekeepers Quarterly * Beekeepers Quarterly Issue 162 *

MARTIN HANN started at Buckfast as a volunteer, then became part time and worked for the NBU as a seasonal bee inspector for six years before finally working full time in the Buckfast Bee department in 2019 in what he considers to be his dream job.

CLARE DENSLEY got her first bees in 1992 and was instantly hooked. She started work at Buckfast Abbey in 2008, helping to manage 400 colonies. Today, Buckfast has 30 colonies and the focus is on education so Clare and Martin run courses and educational visits as well as watching over Buckfasts bees.
