How to Get Started with Beekeeping With Liz Beavis
from HobbyScool Hosted by HobbyScool
In this episode of HobbyScool, I chatted with Liz Beavis all about beekeeping. Liz lives on a 250 acre property in Kumbia, Queensland, Australia, with her husband Pete and three dogs, in a second-hand house that they moved to the property and renovated over about four years. Over time they have developed a veggie garden, a food forest, and chicken tractors in electric fence netting. They also have beehives and produce honey and beeswax. Liz uses the beeswax to make beeswax wraps, candles, leather dressing and chopping board polish. Liz also makes soap using only natural and sustainable ingredients, including locally-sourced hand-rendered beef tallow. This sustainable ingredient also makes a very hard, long-lasting bar of soap. In the episode, we discussed how beginners can get started with beekeeping, who may want to consider beekeeping and the benefits of beekeeping for a home garden.
