If the pre-k know a lot then Sam Comfort of Anarchy Apiaries knows even more. I learned that the Hudson Valley is historic bee territory but that knowledge of beekeeping is vanishing, that bees know best about bees, and agri-business bee keeping is a problem.
Here is Sam Comfort’s advice:
“Bees know what is best for bees. They’ve been doing it a long time. We need to step aside again. Go back to what the bees want to do.”
“Support local agriculture, including beekeepers. At least limit, and better still eliminate the use of
Plant willows, maples, locusts, poplars, lindens, fruit trees, nitrogen-fixers, pollinator gardens. Support diversity of all kinds.
Grow your own food.
Bee the change.”
