Bill Turnbull had no intention of becoming a beekeeper. But when he
saw an ad for beekeeping classes after a swarm of bees landed in
his suburban backyard it seemed to be a sign. Despite being stung
on the head twice at his first hands-on beekeeping class, Turnbull
found himself falling in love with the fascinating, infuriating
honeybee.
As a new beekeeper, Turnbull misplaced equipment for months, got
stung more times and in more places than he cares to remember, and
once even lost some bees up a chimney. But he kept at it, with a
ready sense of humor and Zen-like acceptance of every mishap. And
somehow, along the way, he learned a great deal about himself and
the world around him.
"Confessions of a Bad Beekeeper" chronicles Turnbull 's
misadventures (and brief moments of triumph) in the curious world
of backyard beekeeping and also highlights both the threat to our
bee population and what we can do to help these vital little
creatures do their wonderful work.
