What this episode covers

September 5th, 2020The Bee Whisperer. Derek along with his wife Maureen are Washington State-based chemical-free beekeepers, who believe bees can and should be kept both chemical & treatment-free. Experiencing 100% beehive losses from CCD or Colony Collapse Disorder his first year of beekeeping, Derek embarked on an extensive online research campaign to find natural way to help stop the devastating bee losses from occurring. Initially 3 small Shungite nuggets were placed at one of the beehives entrances, then he observed. In the following weeks he painted his beehives with a mixture of Shungite powder blended into the beehives paint, providing a blanket of protection around the entire beehive. As the weeks progressed, all the while providing no other treatment of any kind for pests, disease or sickness, the bees flourished, by years end the beehive had expanding into a total of 4 healthy beehives, with no signs of any sickness or disease and none of the dreaded colony collapse disorder that’s become so prevalent amongst beekeepers. In addition, taking advantage of their extensive research and broad knowledge on natural health and healing remedies, Derek and Maureen produce ( on their premises) a broad range of health and beauty products, many using their beehives honey and other organic components; these products are sold through their website and  other marketing  channels, thus helping sustain their beehive operation. Guest Website
