This book is a practical guide for beekeepers who wish to produce comb honey. No other product on the market is more natural or more delicious than comb honey. Honey contains no additives and requires no harsh heating to retain its fine flavor and special qualities.
Rearing queen bees and producing comb honey are the two most difficult and specialized aspects of beekeeping. Persons who can do either successfully must be knowledgeable of the biology of the honey bee, as the production of queen bees and comb honey is an art. This book presents refined apiary planning and colony management techniques useful for creating a classic comb honey product.
