“As concerned beekeepers, we need to educate ourselves about the dangers that threaten our communities, and advocate against them. We once could trust in nature to provide for us, and as good stewards of these amazing creatures, we knew the returns were almost guaranteed. Now it can be very difficult indeed to care for honeybees, and beekeepers are becoming as threatened as their colonies. We strongly believe that advocating for organic agriculture is an important part of being a beekeeper in today’s world.”
Les Crowder, Top-Bar Beekeeping: Organic Practices for Honeybee Health

“Figure 9-7. A queen-cell cage (top) and a queen being held by her wings. Learning how to hold and cage a queen takes practice. Stingless drones are good for this purpose. A useful skill for beekeepers to develop is the ability to pick up bees with our fingers without getting stung.”
