The Barefoot Beekeeper

The Barefoot Beekeeper was the title of my first book, published in 2007. Since then, I have written several more books, aimed at people who want to keep bees in a simple, reasonably natural way, without investing a lot of money and free from the synthetic chemical treadmill.

This podcast is irregular, variable in content and hopefully somewhat useful and interesting to beekeepers of all flavours.

You can find my website at www.biobees.com and you will find me on Facebook and rarely on Twitter.

Willie Robson: Heather Honey in the North of England

Sep 13, 2018

Willie Robson and his family have been keeping bees in Northumberland since the 1950s. Few people know more than he does about honey farming with the native black bee, and fewer still have successfully kept them for so long in a commercial context.

This is one of two talks by Willie that I recorded at the 2018 BIBBA conference in Cirencester.

The Robson family run Chainbridge Honey Farm and you can see their web site at https://www.chainbridgehoney.com
