Bee populations around the globe have been declining with potentially catastrophic effects on crop pollination and long-term human survival. Industrial beekeeping doesn't seem to work as an answer, as bees are in distress in these synthetic and hostile environments. This book presents a different approach, idle beekeeping, as a grassroots, low intervention system that seeks to imitate the natural habitat and behavior of bees. An urban beekeeper teaches readers how to build a hive and harvest honey and wax with minimum effort and maximum benefit to bee populations.
