CleanBeekeepers: Screened Bottom Boards & Paraffin Dipping Equipment | Screened Bottom Boards & Paraffin Dipping Equipment with our special guests Janet Brisson from Country Rubes�?? Farms, maker of the popular Combo Screened Bottom Board. Janet Brisson and her husband Mike have been a self-sufficient family and organic farmers for over 30 years. In 1995 they were forced to become hobbyist beekeepers due to lack of pollination as bees were loosing their fight against the insidious Varroa mites. Horrified to discover that even the most organic-minded beekeepers were driven to use some type of chemical to save their bees, the Brisson�?? researched and started building and using screened bottom boards along with intensive drone brood management to reduce their chemical use. After 10 years and various adaptations of SBB�??s, they re-discovered using powdered sugar as an effective way of detaching Varroa mites and have been chemical free since the beginning of 2005. One final modification of their screened bottom board to make using powdered sugar easy, the Brisson�?? developed their product, the Country Rubes Combo Screened Bottom Board, that has become nationally available to beekeepers. Janet�??s program �??Healthy Bees & Environmentally Friendly Varroa Control�?? discusses how to monitor and manage your hives, bees and varroa mites using screened bottom boards, powdered sugar, and drone brood manipulations has been given at Conferences and clubs throughout the United States | 4/8/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanBeekeeping-Making Products From the Hive | Making Products from the hive with Monica warner Monica Warner is the co-owner of The Carolina Bee Company. She and her husband, Todd have been keeping bees since May of 2004. They are a small beekeeping operation located in Franklin County, North Carolina (about 20 miles north of Raleigh). This little enterprise was started with just two hives of honey bees. Over these handful of years, the Warner�??s slowly expanded the number of hives as well as their experience. Today, The Carolina Bee Company still remains a small company that produces high quality, chemicalfree, raw honey; and offers limited pollination services to the surrounding gardening and farming communities. Now, they have also expanded their small company to include the production of fabulous all natural, slow-cured, hand-crafted and handmade soaps, lip balms, and body butters. All of their products are made from scratch with the very best all-natural ingredients to include, of course, the blessings of The Carolina Bee Company honey bees: honey and beeswax. Their products have been a resounding success. Monica entered the soaps, lip balms and body butters into the 2008 and 2009 NC State Fairs, and won 1st and 2nd place ribbons for them respectively. Feedback on the products has been so positive, that they are expanding the product line further by selling in a couple local (Raleigh area) businesses, in addition to selling them on their website, www.carolinabees.com. | 12/10/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
