This is for the purchase of a digital copy, a PDF, of my book: "Overwintering Top Bar Beehives: Guidelines, timelines, & recipes to help you bring your first hive through a cold winter." You may also buy this as an ebook on Amazon.com for the same price. Overview Every new beekeeper should have a mentor. However, it can be hard to find a mentor with top bar hive experience.
