Christy Hemenway speaks about her book “The Thinking Beekeeper” at the Friday Local Author Series July 26th at noon in Meeting Room #5Portland, Maine - Get started in natural beekeeping using top bar hives - with personal advice from local beekeeper, Christy Hemenway, author of The Thinking Beekeeper – A Guide to Natural Beekeeping in Top Bar Hives. This event is part of the Friday Local Author Series and takes place from noon to 1pm on Friday, July 26, 2013 in Meeting Room #5 at the Portland Public Library, 5 Monument Square, Portland, ME. It is free and open to the public.
The Thinking Beekeeper is the definitive how-to and why-to book on the keeping of bees in this natural, easily managed hive. Top bar beehives allow honeybees to make their beeswax combs just like they would do in a hollow tree. Christy will answer your questions about why this natural wax is so important to bees, and how you can get started keeping bees in this natural method.
Honeybees matter so much to our world today. They pollinate the food we eat, and act as our “canary in a coal mine” about the devastating effects of environmental toxins. Come and learn how you can help to be a part of the solution to this daunting problem!
The Thinking Beekeeper will be available for purchase and signing at this event. Feel free to bring your lunch!
