Bee Love Beekeeping... presented by Mann Lake by Eric Bennett

Episode notes

Get in the Bee Love mood with a fun intro from the not real Jeff Foxworthy! "...You might be a beekeeper!"

How have Hurricanes Helene and Milton affected bees and beekeepers in the Southeastern U.S.? We'll take a deep dive in our interview with Andrew Wagner, a prominent Florida beekeeper. We discuss how many beehives have been lost, how forage loss will affect bees in the future, and what you can do to help.

The Bees-In-The-News segment highlights the 'cool factor' of beekeeping and how celebrities are getting involved, then a story about how air pollution is affecting bees.

This episode ends with a Wild & Crazy beekeeping story from Rob in Oregon. What do you do when you have bees inside your veil? Rob's first time ended with a bloody nose and multiple stings on his face!
