All about honeybees

Hello
I would love to be on your podcast.

Something a little different. I have developed a rather unique beehive nest box beehive. And system of beekeeping.

Developed primarily for my own investigation of honeybees I have evolved a system like no other. Resulting in bees that are less stressed. Thus happier and healthier.

Hope to hear from you soon.
