Paul Metcalfe has been keeping bees for almost 50 years. For 12 of those years he was the Beekeeping Adviser for Norfolk and he is currently lecturer on Beekeeping at Easton College. In this DVD he takes us through the beekeeping year, from April to the onset of winter. The management of the hive is carefully explained and demonstrated, including swarm control, disease control, honey extraction and feeding. The DVD is paced to allow the viewer time to study in detail correct handling procedures at all stages of the hive's summer cycle.
