From start to finish, let veteran beekeepers and farming professionals Daniel and Samantha Johnson walk you through the dos and do-nots of raising a happy and healthy hive of honey bees. Like many backyard endeavors, beekeeping can be as rigorous as it is rewarding, and many considerations must be taken into account when deciding when, where, and how to establish your hive.
