Bee keeping as a hobby is not only growing, but is big money. From the sale of honey to bees themselves, let me take you on the adventure of how to capitalize on bee keeping that is good for the bees and you. Bee keeping is a growing hobby. With TV, Radio, Movies, books, and discussion on the loss of the honey bee population around the world, it is on the tip of everyone’s tongue. I am not here to tell you about CCD, (Colony Collapse Disorder) because I have never experienced it myself. I want to tell you my first hand experiences with bees, from the loss of not knowing how to be a good keeper of the bees, to making an inner city home stead centered around the little girls super profitable. How to grow a small hobby Apiary, or back yard hive into a money making company. I want to show you how to take your starting products to the people, and how to develop new ideas in this art of bee keeping. That it is not being the millionaire, but being able to turn your hobbies, no matter what they are, into your job, and your job more into a hobby. Learn more at permaculturevoices.com.

17. What Kind of Beekeeper I
am
Ben Franklin
With everything from bi-focals,
lightning, and the US Constitution in his
realm of interests, it is not surprising he
is mentioned by Thomas Wildman as a
patron for Wildman's 1768 Treatise on
the Management of Bees.
Sherlock Holmes
This great detective retired to a simple
life of puttering around with bees. As a
beekeeper, he continued to demonstrate
his problem-solving expertise.
Martha Stewart
The cute-as-a-button harbinger of
American Style has been a model, a
stockbroker, and a beekeeper for over
twenty-five years! The avid gardener
realized a long time ago that keeping
bees is a good thing. If you are
unfamiliar with this fascinating
character, crawl out from under your
rock and jump to Martha Stewart Living!

23. Types of Bee
keeping To name
some
(Commercial beekeeper) One
who operates a sufficiently large
number of colonies for honey
production or crop pollination as
a business for profit.
(Urban or backyard
beekeeping) is an attempt to
revert to a less industrialized
way of obtaining honey by
utilizing small-scale colonies that
pollinate urban gardens.
(Biodynamic beekeeping), use
natural materials for the hives,
do not give them any
foundation, do not make
artificial nuclei or induce queen
rearing, minimize stress factors
and allow bees to develop in
accordance with their true
nature. Going back to 4.9mm
bees.
(Hybrid beekeeping) is using
old and new beekeeping to do
sustainable beekeeping. This is
not traditional beekeeping, but
the styles are old, the equipment
used is modern.

36. * Note on Stinger Removal*
Bee sting removal can be a tricky subject, one that
needs a certain amount of clarification. The fact is,
many people do not know how to properly
remove a bee sting; if you don't know how to
properly remove the stinger, the bee sting could
become worse. A specific method must be
employed when endeavoring to remove a bee
stinger.
After being stung, the first thing you must do is
realize that the stinger needs to be removed as
quickly as possible. Rush to the kitchen or
bathroom or wherever you keep your health
supplies. Do not reach for the tweezers! These are
your enemy when dealing with any kind of bee
sting. Tweezers will squeeze any leftover venom
in the stinger into your body, thus making the
sting site worse. Find something to scrape the
sting with, like a needle. First, disinfect the needle
(or other sharp object) with rubbing alcohol. Then,
carefully scrape the area to remove the stinger so
as not to cause any more damage to the inflamed
area.
After removing the stinger, you need to clean the
wound with warm water and soap, or rubbing
alcohol. Then, especially when dealing with
children, apply ice or very cold water to cool
down the sting site. This will help relieve much of
the pain due to the heat caused by the influx of
blood to the area, not to mention numb the sting
site and the surrounding skin.
