Two Bees in a Podcast - A podcast by UF/IFAS Honey Bee Lab - Tuesdays

In this episode, we are joined by Logan Cutts to talk about his experience as a fifth-generation beekeeper. This is followed by a segment where Dr. Ellis and Amy discuss the commercial beekeeping industry. We end this episode with Q&A. Questions What’s the deal with Manuka honey? Why is it so fancy, and why do people want it? Should we keep bees in the sun or the shade? Where is the best placement, and should the entrances be faced in a certain direction? Can bees survive in observation hives survive in a home? Does the placement of these hives matter?
