Did you know that the European honey bee is known as Apis mellifera in scientific terms? In this episode, I had a chat with two amazing urban beekeepers, Patrick McKannan and Kyle Tindle, who shared their experiences and love for keeping honey bees.
Patrick is not just an experienced urban beekeeper but also a fantastic mentor who teaches beekeeping classes and mentors bee scholarship students at Paul Quinn College in Dallas. He is our bee guru in our journey as new urban beekeepers.
Kyle Tindle is a new beekeeper, and he has fallen in love with the hobby more than he ever expected. Kyle talks about what he enjoys the most about keeping bees, why he started and what he's learned about keeping bees.
Some excellent bee resources:
Check out the Trinity Valley Beekeepers Association and their scholarship program at Paul Quinn College
Bee girl by Chisti Baughman (classes and you can buy bees)
