This year of beekeeping resulted in a record honey crop for me, totalling about 240kg of sweet, golden honey, I hope you enjoy watching and learning about where honey comes from. See you next year for more beekeeping!

Those of you who are regulars may have watched these videos already but as with every year I wanted to compile all my beekeeping videos from the past season. Enjoy!

Sweetest thing in this video is not honey, it's this guy,

This guy is so positive, and his energy is so good, my heart feels light, after watching videos like this,

definately, one of the best content on the youtube

The start of your beekeeping journey is what brought me into this channel! Can’t believe it’s been four years! Also I’m so happy everytime I see these longform videos! 2 hours of Alex yapping about cool stuff?! YES! 😁

You know a video is good when almost 2 hours goes by in ten minutes. Then at the end of it you are left wishing for another 2 hours. Kudos.

I don't know why, but the sound the boxes make when you break them apart is sooooo satisfying.

The change in your confidence is crazy. I binged through your beekeeping series, and in the first video, it was very evident that it was your first time. Lots of stumbling around, not knowing what to do.

Here, you look, sound, and act like someone I would go to for tips on how to start beekeeping. Keep it up, Alex! You inspire me to want to be more in touch with nature in every video.

This is a great channel to find during the so many tragedies happening in the world. Thank you

I bought 2 jars 4 days ago. I woke up yesterday morning very ill (throat and mouth) and i've had a teaspoon of Alex's honey every three hours and it has cleared my symptoms instantly. Can't reccomend more. I'll be buying more in the Spring. Well done mate!

just finished re-watching last year's video and here is new one. Thank you Alex, your videos are so wholesome

Your comments are so informative and articulate. And expressive: that’s the best. Who knew beekeeping could be so full of life??
Thank you Alex for sharing this with us.

I am from Nepal.
I have watched all your videos, and I especially like your beekeeping content. I am also trying a little bit in beekeeping.❤❤❤❤❤

You're livin the dream, bro. I've been thinking about getting into beekeeping, too. I used to raise cattle, but the inheritance got all screwed up and I had to quit, but I think I can probably have some bee-"herds" instead and keep them on the same places I used to keep cattle. 💪

Your videos are so soothing. They pull me out of the rat race into your life, which feels wonderfully alien and fantasy-like. Every once in a while, they pop into my recommendations and I end up doing some passive activity I'd been putting off while spending an hour or so watching your video. Your videos genuinely make my happy—thank you.

Watched your first videos, you've come a long way dude. You're doing great work

Crazy to think you were the one to inspire me to become a beekeeper. Been going since January and it's been a lovely experience! Thanks for the great content Alex.
Much love from South Africa
