John and Gloria share their love of bees in this book with readers and enjoy sharing the honey from their bee hives with friends and family. Honey from their “mom and pop” operation is delivered the way they believe it should stay….pure, unheated and with no pesticides; having its natural properties intact. Honey, beeswax, propolis and royal jelly have many healing properties which you will find in this book. Inside this 217 page book you will find many honey recipes included for your health and enjoyment. This book includes information on preventing colony collapse. How to keep bees and produce a profitable honey crop. Both organic and chemical treatments to aid in treating your hives for disease and pests. Did you know that all worker bees are female? The queen bee is the mother of all bees in the hive. The males, or drones, have only one purpose, to mate once with a virgin queen which is, unfortunately, a fatal experience. They mate with the queen in the air, then fall to the ground dead. Then, in the fall, all the other drones are all kicked out of the hive where they quickly die from exposure and starvation. If you ever wondered anything about bees and how honey is produced, or even if you haven’t, this book will tell you more than you didn’t know that you didn’t know! John Squires has been a beekeeper since 1958 after he first heard a fantastic story from his dad about a monster sized wild hive. He has successfully taught many wanna-beekeepers to raise bees for fun and profit. This book is for the beginner to the experienced beekeeper who has been enjoying this skill for years. Either way, you will be fascinated by the amazing honeybee and enjoy his bee adventures as he shares them in this book.
