Advanced Natural Beekeeping ~ Full Video Available

 

The Advanced Natural Beekeeping program was presented in October 2021 by Kirk Webster, the legend of natural beekeeping, and Dr. Leo Sharashkin, Editor of Keeping Bees with a Smile. It attracted 220 people from 31 states. The complete video of the event is now available — full five hours of presentations complete with hundreds of images and diagrams. A lifetime of practical wisdom in one day!

Kirk Webster single-handedly produces up to 40,000 lb of honey per year (that’s sixty 55-gallon drums) and raises 1,500 queens of remarkable disease resistance. His Vermont apiaries have been completely treatment-free for 20 years! He has 300 honey-producing hives and many hundreds of smaller colonies.

Dr. Leo Sharashkin is a full-time natural beekeeper in the Missouri Ozarks, editor of Keeping Bees with a Smile and founder of HorizontalHive.com Dr. Leo keeps 50 Layens horizontal hives stocked with wild swarms.

This full-day program will inspire you with the limitless opportunities of natural beekeeping, and will show practical time-tested ways to achieve BIG success whether you have a few hives or a thousand.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

In addition to Kirk’s and Dr. Leo’s visually rich presentations, a full hour was devoted to questions and answers. We wanted to include as much practical detail on advanced natural beekeeping as possible, and a clear understanding of how to apply it in your apiary, whether it is your hobby or your livelihood. Following Kirk’s methods, people have grown their apiaries from 10 to 200 hives in two summers — the system really works, sky is the limit, and the point of this training is to help you succeed. The four presentations include:

  1. The Natural Form of a Northern Apiary (Kirk Webster)
  2. A Year in the Beeyard: How It Works (Kirk Webster)
  3. Natural Beekeeping in Layens Hives (Dr. Leo Sharashkin)
  4. Questions and Answers with Kirk Webster and Dr. Leo Sharashkin
    5.

ADVANCED TOPICS

Please note: This program covers many advanced topics. You will benefit the most if you are already a beekeeper or at least read Keeping Bees with a Smile and Raising Honeybee Queens. This program is very different from Dr. Leo’s two-day natural beekeeping seminar — the two complement each other and don’t have much overlap.
