Hi guys,
I know there are several folks on here interested in getting started in natural beekeeping. I came across some really great info this morning by The Barefoot Beekeeper , Phil Chandler. I'd been on his site before, but he's recently added several free PDF resources and a low-cost PDF version of his book The Barefoot Beekeeper that is also available in print on Amazon. Thought this might be of interest to some of you. Particularly the free plans he's made available on How to Build a Top Bar Hive, which looks easy enough that I could build one myself. This is a horizontal top bar hive, which I hear is easier to work.
If you get a moment, hop on there and check out his site: http://www.biobees.com/
(Vfem, I know your handy hubby could build one of these hives easy peasy! )
