Dani and Patrice update Varroa Mite’s control in New South Wales. Dani’s honeybees in the red zone are dead. Her native-bees have moved to safer ground. You won’t be seeing honey bees in the Newcastle area for some time.

Production: Lucienne Joy.
Music:  Heidi Prichard.

Patrice’s bees are an important part of her biodynamic farm Elmswood in the Upper Hunter Valley, NSW. She sells honey during a good honey flow season, available www.patricenewell.com.au.
