Beekeeping
Not sure if this belongs in livestock or food production...

As part of my grand plan to get myself (and OH) a sustainable garden, I plan to start keeping bees. I've done a nice little course on it - very interesting - all I need now is some recommendations for reading. Do any of you keep bees? I fancy the topbar hives because they seem to be a little less labour intensive, but some info would be useful.

And it's not just for honey, but I need bees to keep my crops well pollinated. Last summer was a bust and the low level of bees flying because of all the rain made a huge difference to the pollination levels of my fruit crops.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
