    4. Alternative Beekeeping

      Post here for Top Bar, Warre, Observation hives as well as Treatment Free and Natural Beekeeping in New Zeland. Note: If possible, beginner beekeepers are encouraged to learn about keeping bees first using standard equipment, before migrating to alternative methods - it can save a lot of heartache in the long run
