811: All about Keeping Honeybees with Cricket Alderidge Ungvary

A Rosie On The House Radio Show Replay

In This Podcast: Ever thought about keeping honeybees? It's a process and it's something we need to learn if you're gonna take it on and that's exactly what we're talking about today. Join our our monthly radio show called Rosie On The House in Phoenix, Arizona as we discuss with Cricket what it takes to keep honeybees; and oh yeah, what is mead.

Our Guest: Today we have Cricket Aldridge Ungvary to talk about her experience with suburban homesteading in the desert. Cricket is a natural homesteader growing up in rural Idaho with a garden, a horse, and lots of home canned food.

She brings those sensibilities to her farm in North Phoenix. Cricket adds a little dose of cottage garden flavor and permaculture tendencies, and you'll see why her blog, BloomingAZ. com, is a reflection of everything she does. Cricket is a longtime beekeeper, brought in to this new life skill by wanting to know more about making mead.

Now she runs a farm called Blooming Ranch and teaches people every day about bees, chickens, and more.
