The Barefoot Beekeeper by P.J. Chandler
A simple guide to sustainable top-bar beekeeping for the amateur, The Barefoot Beekeeper is for those “who love bees and understand and appreciate their vial role in the pollination of a huge range of both wild and cultivated plants.” P. J. Chandler certainly loves his bees. He admits right away that he is not a bee expert, he simply loves bees and wants all the best for them. The Barefoot Beekeeper demonstrates a beekeeping philosophy and practice where honey production and profit are last on the agenda and the welfare of the bees are the top priority. If you want to get into sustinable beekeeping or want to change your beekeeping practices, this book is a great starting point. Although production is not the ultimate goal, if you care for your bees and really love your bees, they will give you ample rewards.
