Join us, Steve and Luke, your friendly neighborhood beekeeping enthusiasts, as we embark on an exciting journey into the world of honeybees, hives, and all things buzzing! We have our first beekeeping buddy Valerie Ross on our episode! We talk about what it is like to be a beginner beekeeper!

With over a decade of combined experience in beekeeping, we're no strangers to the sweet, sticky world of apiaries. From our humble beginnings as hobbyist beekeepers to our thriving bee yards nestled in the heart of Peoria, IL, we've seen it all – from swarms to honey harvests, and everything in between.

In this episode, we'll take you into our personal bee yards and remember what it was like being a beginner beekeeper, sharing the latest updates and insights from our buzzing colonies and our grafting. Whether it's the thrill of spotting a new queen or the challenges of managing hive health, or even the heartbreak of losing a hive, we'll give you an up-close look at the joys and responsibilities of beekeeping.
