New edition: Bee Agskills - Beginning in bees
When we first published Bee Agskills in 2007, we didn’t realise how popular beekeeping was becoming. Since then we’ve published 9 other specialised books for beekeepers! Now that Bee Agskills is in its 20th year, our experienced bee education team have given it a full update, to ensure it’s fit for purpose for the next generation of beekeepers.
