The simple -- and odd-shaped -- topbar hive is both ancient technology and newfangled trend.
The "back-to-basics" hive fosters cooperation with honeybees with its less intensive style of beekeeping, while its nonstandard, easily customizable design leaves room for innovation, especially useful in light of modern day hardships of imported pests, plagues, pesticides, and environmental alterations.
This entertaining, easy to read guide discusses topbar hives and their management -- both the benefits AND the drawbacks -- in a way that's easily understood by those with limited hands-on experience with bees, while also exploring the differences in management for those experienced with standard hives.
