Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities
Helpful beekeeping sites
Linda states:
"I began this blog to chronicle my beekeeping experiences. I have read lots of beekeeping books, but nothing takes the place of
either hands-on experience with an experienced beekeeper or good
pictures of the process. I want people to have a clearer picture of
what to expect in their beekeeping so I post pictures and write about my
beekeeping saga here. Along the way, I've passed a number of
certification levels and am now a Master
Beekeeper!"

This is another good site for beginners: The Best Way to Set Up a Bee Hive:

Also the Nature of Things had a very informative episode about the disappearance of bee colonies:

"The sudden and drastic disappearance of bee colonies around the world has scientists scrambling to find a cause -- and an antidote." -
