About this episode

Leigh Wilkerson shares her quirky process for harvesting honey from hives to jars, offering tips and resources for beekeepers.

In this episode I share my own process for getting honey from the hives to the jars. It's quirky but it works for me and I'm hoping you might find ideas for your own process or just enjoy hearing how someone else does it. That's what I did when researching this episode! For supporting patrons, I've also collected a few videos (with video summaries included) you might enjoy and for newer beekeepers, a PDF with a list of tips and links that may help you figure out your own process.
