Beekeeping Tips
During 2012, a number of beekeepers shared their beekeeping tips with BuzzAboutBees.net readers, and two beekeepers received a copy of Dr David Heaf's 'The Bee Friendly Beekeeper', courtesy of Northern Bee Books.

The Bee-friendly Beekeeper by David Heaf is available from Northern Bee Books on line shop (international delivery available). The book has received excellent reviews.
Many thanks to Katharina Davitt for showing new beekeepers how to make a simple bee brush,
