205. Beekeeping for Beginners - Our First Bees!

How easy is beekeeping for beginners? In this vlog we collect our first bees, prepare a quiet, sheltered area for them, and show how we build the hives where they'll live. We've been researching for months and talked to dozens of beekeepers, but we're also self-taught too and learning new beekeeping skills every day.
