The Beekeepers Table

In our first episode of The Beekeepers Table, we take a seasonal look at the fascinating relationship between bees, folklore and superstition.

From tales of witches and their bee-like familiars to the ancient tradition of telling the bees, we explore some of the beliefs and customs that have surrounded beekeeping over the centuries. We also touch on Samhain, the changing seasons and the mysterious world of the winter colony.

Join Martin and Melanie for an informal conversation about the history, traditions and occasional peculiarities of beekeeping.

The Beekeepers Table is brought to you by Beeza.
