In last month’s poll, I asked two questions.
- What are the 1-3 beekeeping books that every beginner should read?
- What are the 1-3 beekeeping books that every advanced beekeeper should have on their bookshelf?
Two people, both of whom have over 5 years of experience keeping bees, responded. Their answers are below. Thank you to the two beekeepers who responded.
Books every beginner should read:
- How to Keep Bees and Sell Honey, by:Walter T Kelley
- Langstroth’s Hive and the Honey Bee
