About this episode
How does a beekeeper deal with the seasonal population shifts, weather and resulting needs of the honey bees in their care. How does a beekeeper balance the needs of the colony with the needs of the beekeeper? The middle of that Venn Diagram is a very small slice of common interests. Mostly, the bees and the beekeeper are at odds of what that intersection should include. In today's episode, Kim and Jim examine this conundrum of needs and expectations - the balance-point of which changes constantly, based a multitude of seasonal variables. Listen in as Kim and Jim sort of the details to find an approach that has worked for them. What works for you? Let them know! ______________________ Thanks to Betterbee for sponsoring today's episode.
