Why read it?
1 author picked The Backyard Beekeeper as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book was exactly what I needed to better understand what is involved in starting a beehive in an urban setting. Flottum starts his readers with the bare-bones basics and builds from there. He also goes into what he calls “Extreme Urban Beekeeping” with tips on considerations for those of us with close neighbors. I have not started beekeeping yet, but Flottum has inspired me to add it to my list of future endeavors.
From Michelle's list on for aspiring urban homesteaders.
