Book excerpt: Backyard Beekeeping Business Strat Up How to Start, Run & Grow a Million Dollar Organic Honey Business From Home! I first got exposed to the idea of beekeeping back in 2005 by my next door neighbors. They were doing it right in their backyard, and according to them, they were making a decent side income from it. As our third child was on the way, I was trying to figure out a way to make some extra income and yes I dove right into this business without knowing anything about bees. But I knew if I set my mind up to do something I would do it till the end. Little did I know that this would literally change my whole life for many years to come. Long story short, I started out from my backyard, and in two years, after creating a successful partnership with my neighbor, we opened up a bee farm and had a huge success. The business grew every year by 15%-20% from the previous year. Last year we suddenly had an unexpected offer from a big name honey producing company to sell our farm. After a month long debate and discussion between family and partners, we started the negotiation process, and I am happy to report that we were able to sell our farm for a good profit. This book is not about my success but yours, I want you to read this book with an open mind and think about the possibility of having your own beekeeping business. This book is the direct result of those 11 years' experience in beekeeping and bee farming. I may not be the ultimate authority in this field but what I share in this book is what I learned over those 11 years. This is pure and honest knowledge, maybe a bit raw at times. I have learned a lot not only about the bees but about Honey and what good they can do for our body and overall well-being. I wanted this book to be a complete guide for Beekeeping and Honey and how to get started in this business.

Book excerpt: This essential guide to beekeeping will introduce you, in a simple and effective way, to all the various steps you need to take in order to generate your beehives and make them prosper. One of the most common mistakes among beginners is to think that all bees are capable of producing honey. You need to know that there exist more than 20.000 species of bees, but only a small part of those can actually produce honey! It is then important to understand which kind of bee to raise to be able to produce good honey, pollen, propolis and royal jelly. There currently are many references about the beneficial properties of honey for our health, and there are also many studies dedicated to these. Obviously, in order to enjoy all the benefits provided by honey, you need to prefer the raw one, the one that has not undergone industrial processing. In fact, such processes deprive it from many of its useful nutrients, impoverishing its quality and reducing its effectiveness. From picking the right hive and bringing your bees home to surviving winter and collecting honey, experienced beekeeper Amanda Ross takes you on an easy-to-follow journey through your first year of beekeeping and beyond. Beekeeping for beginners includes: Just the essentials―Learn everything you need to know to begin your first colony―written with brand new beekeepers in mind. Modern beekeeping―Start your colony off right with guides that feature the newest practices and current, natural approaches. Learn to speak the bee language―Clearly defined terms and a complete glossary will have you talking like a pro beekeeper in no time. The following are just some of the great benefits and properties of natural raw honey: It is very rich in antioxidants; It can counteract bacterial proliferation; It has anti-inflammatory properties; It is effective in the treatment of cough; It is an excellent source of energy, and also a healthier sweetener compared to to normal sugar. Honey can even help healing wounds! Isn't it amazing? It is in fact being proved that the application of the substance on wounds can stimulate the healing process and helps with tissue regeneration; it also helps to prevent infections and reduce inflammations.
