We know so little about honeybees, but the way they move and form colonies are very telling indeed. When Henry Svec and his wife Mary converted their 50-acre farm into a honeybee sanctuary, he learned a lot not only about taking care of them but also about preserving nature. Joining Corinna Bellizzi, the Founder of Wildflower Bee Farm and Author of “What Grandpa Learned from His Honeybees” shares how the hive-building behavior of honeybees opened his eyes to nature's interconnectedness and why it should be allowed to heal by itself. Henry also discusses some myths regarding bees and honey, maximizing the effect of beneficial bacteria, the advantages of land banking, and the benefits of infrared light to honeybee farms.About Guest:Henry Svec is the Founder of Wildflower Bee Farm and Author of “What Grandpa Learned from His Honeybees.” In late 2019, he and his wife Mary converted their 50-acre cash crop farm in Southwestern Ontario into a bee sanctuary, where they have been chronicling their daily work through weekly videos since January 2020.
