Complete and Easy Guide to Beekeeping by Kim Flottum

This revised and expanded edition of The Complete & Easy Guide to Beekeeping gives you even more information on 'greening' your beekeeping with sustainable practices, pesticide-resistant bees, and urban and suburban beekeeping. The Complete and Easy Guide to Beekeeping makes the time-honoured and complex tradition of beekeeping an enjoyable and accessible pastime that will appeal to gardeners, crafters and cooks everywhere. More than a guide to beekeeping, it is a handbook for harvesting the products of a beehive, a honey cookbook and more - all in one lively beautifully illustrated reference. If you want beekeeping done right, it won't be fast. However, beekeeping takes about the same investment in time and care as gardening, dovetails nicely with the planting and harvesting seasons and provides bonuses for gardeners that include better pollination.
After receiving a degree in production horticulture from the University of Wisconsin, Kim Flottum began a career in honey bee pollination research with the USDA and a lifelong interest in the multifaceted hobby and business of beekeeping. He is the editor of Bee Culture magazine. Kim is also the author of The Honey Handbook (Apple Press, 2009).
