Comments, Reviews
February 6, 2023 (Amazon) "I received a review copy of this book before it came out, but would have paid for it had I not. What a great resource! It is the perfect starter guide for those wanting to get into beekeeping. Step-by-step, thoughtful, thorough advice that I wish I had when I got started with my hive years ago. I've learned a lot from this book, even after 10 years of beekeeping." -- Christy Wilhelmi
February 2, 2023 (Amazon) "This book is chock full of essential information about keeping bees! I had the awesome opportunity to attend a beekeeping course run by the local bee club and meet Charlotte. She is witty, humble and so full of tidbits; the whole group just vibed well together. I was so inspired to learn more about bees! My appreciation of the flower/tree and bee relationship has augmented! It's not just about the product of honey; it's about getting to know bees and understand their way of doing things. We're just along for the ride!" -- JayMae
