The barefoot beekeeper by p j chandler

The Barefoot Beekeeper is a revolutionary new book about sustainable, chemical-free beekeeping using top bar hives= The Barefoot Beekeeper SECOND EDITION (2008) NOW AVAILABLE The Barefoot Beekeeper is a revolutionary book about 'sustainable', chemical-free beekeeping, showing how it can be simplified and made accessible to all, including people with disabilities, as with this method there is no heavy lifting involved. The author strips away all unnecessary complication and confusion, demonstrating that 'modern' beekeeping methods are largely to blame for the poor state of health of the honeybee and that the commercialization of beekeeping marked the start of the disease and parasite problems that honeybees have been trying to deal with ever since. The author advocates small-scale, sustainable beekeeping, with minimal disturbance to the bees and more time spent observing and learning from them. This book shows how you can make everything you need to keep bees yourself, using recycled materials and simple tools: you do not need to buy any additional equipment at all, nor do you need synthetic medications or other chemicals.

High yield vegetable gardening

High Yield Vegetable GardeningLast year we began trying to increase the yield in our garden. After reading the news stories about the rising food costs and shortages we decided it was time to make sure our garden could provide as much produce as possible. Last year we were able to not only have enough produce to eat during the summer. But we were able to can and freeze alot of extra vegetables to be used during the winter. We had surplus tomatoes, beans, carrots and broccoli that we canned and froze for use during the year. We had so many tomatoes that we canned salsa, spaghetti sauce, tomato sauce and we still froze tomatoes as well.
