Additional Resources and Beekeeping Diversions
We noticed the number of menu items across the top of our webpages growing and wrapping out of control. Therefore we decided to create a page for those BTP artifacts we wanted to share and for our listeners to browse on those, rainy, down days, when all the bee work was done and you were caught up on all the latest episodes.
Enjoy!
How To Get Started in Beekeeping
Over the years we've run special series on 'How To Get Started in Beekeeping', packed full of valuable and practical information. We've pulled them together onto one page where you can sort through them to listen to the episodes you want!
Upscaling from Hobbyist to Sideliner Series
Are you ready to take your beekeeping operation to the next level? In this special five-part series we dive deep into the process of growing from a hobbyist beekeeper to a sideliner managing 50-300 colonies. Featuring expert guests, each episode focuses on a key aspect of expansion, from scaling colony numbers to designing a honey house and building a sustainable business.
Whether you’re thinking about growing your operation or already managing dozens of colonies, this series is packed with valuable insights, practical advice, and real-world experiences to help you upscale efficiently and profitably.
The Habitat Crisis
These discussions laid bare the stark reality of the habitat crisis while offering hope through actionable solutions that beekeepers, landowners, and policymakers can implement to help our bees—and other pollinators—thrive.
Listener Opens
Late in 2023 we started to invite listeners to send us openings for episodes. This page shows a map where they live around the world and provides instructions on how you too, can submit an opening to the Beekeeping Today Podcast!
