The Barefoot Beekeeper is a comprehensive guide to low-cost, natural beekeeping. You'll learn how to maintain bee colonies without the need for special equipment or chemicals. In fact, you don't need to buy anything at all. You can build everything yourself using simple tools and recycled materials. The methods in The Barefoot Beekeeper are easy and affordable for anyone to follow.
The Barefoot Beekeeper's author stresses the need small-scale, sustainable beekeeping that only minimally disturbs the bees rather than the modern commercialized beekeeping methods that have led to many disease and parasite problems.
If you've been a traditional beekeeper, The Barefoot Beekeeper will teach you a new way that will create natural conditions for the bees and improve their health. It will also be a better experience for the beekeeper. You can learn all about this interesting and unique hobby for only £7.50.
Inspired by this thread, I bought and read the book yesterday. It's a very helpful primer on the main issues and a VERY inspiring discussion of sustainable beekeeping. Some good history and background, as well.
