The Bee-Kind Garden
Apian wisdom for your garden
By Squire, David | Publisher: Green Books
About the book
\"A charming little book for anyone who wants a gentle introduction to the world of honeybees, with a surprising amount of useful information about gardening for bees.\" - Ken Thompson, author of No Nettles Required: the truth about wildlife gardening
Bees are vital for the future of theplanet, for without their dedicated pollinating skills many crops would eventually fail. This delightfully illustrated book is a homage to bees, revealing many facets of their lives, including homes, flight patterns and defence. It also describes how to attract bees to your garden and, essentially, the art of talking to them! Then there is honey, a near-miraculous elixir that for earlier generations was an integral part of life as a sweetener and food preserver. It can be fermented with water and yeast to creat mead, a drink that has been enjoyed for thousands of years.
