Feral honeybee populations in the US have dropped about 96% in the past 50 years due to pesticides and disease which endangers the entire country's domestic and wildlife food supply. Managed honeybee colonies have dropped by at least two thirds. Yet beekeepers are confused about what to do and many are going out of business.

      For the past 15 years, our company, Purvis Bees, has studied these problems to find practical solutions. After years of focused work, we've finally compiled everything beekeepers need to know about producing and breeding bees profitably in one place.

      My name is Dann Purvis and I am dedicated to saving the bee population of the world. Here in our online community, you'll find education, information, fellowship and resources to make your beekeeping business or hobby even more enjoyable.
