Leigh’s talks are SO informative and helpful. Her advice has served as well and guided us to up to over 20 colonies including selling 7 this year. Thank you Leigh!! We have pulled 40lbs and probably have at least 250 more to go if we manage robbing and any other late summer issues. From 2021...Read full review »

Leigh, As usual, you have provided the perfect information at the perfect time! I am going to try Ang Roell’s runaway split today. I am leaving town and won’t be home to perform the ten day queen cell cut down requirement for your preferred split recipe. Thanks again for your great, timely...Read full review »

Really appreciate anyone willing to share their bee expertise and this podcast is amazing. Leigh is polite, grounded, and gets to the nitty gritty. She promotes other bee podcasts and sources of information. High yield listening. Leigh I like when you read articles! Thanks, from Minnesota

So glad I found this podcast! I am a second year beekeeper and I am learning so much. My bees overwintered beautifully here in PA but this spring has been more challenging than my first year. Her approach is broad and reminds us that we have to work with nature and the bees, rather than try to...Read full review »

I love listening to Lee’s honest and authentic sharing of her bee journey. Her unpretentious and enthusiastic attitude as well as her willingness to impart upon the willing listener, wisdom and experience gained over many years with bees, is both refreshing and encouraging.

Leigh is such a wonderful teacher of beekeeping. I’ve learned a great deal as a 3rd year beekeeper from this podcast and look forward to every episode, even the “reading” episodes. So much information and knowledge in each episode!!
Paula Daniels via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/20
Leigh is easy to listen to and understand. She delivers information starting with broader concepts and dials in to explain the details. Her non-judgmental perspective is refreshing. Highly recommend.
melmor800 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/07/20
This is one of the best beekeeping podcasts I’ve listened to. It’s refreshing to hear Leigh’s voice, which is so wholesome and comforting. It’s nice to hear about beekeeping from a woman’s perspective as well. The information is delivered ad lib, so it feels more like being in the presence of a...Read full review »

I am starting with my first 2 hives this spring and have been reading and watching everything I can! I posted on the Barnyard Bees FB group to see if anyone knew of any good beekeeping podcasts. I am a pest control technician and am able to listen a lot more than I can read or watch during my...Read full review »

I could sit and listen to bee talk all day every day, but Leigh is especially easy to listen to and packs her podcasts full of useful information.
Esiefker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/20
Great beekeeping advice from a natural storyteller. I binge listened to many podcasts in one sitting. The sound of her voice is like a warm blanket. Practical as well as entertaining.

Thanks for the best beekeeping podcast on the net.
Cliff’s iTunes via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/22/19
Leigh’s style is wonderful to listen to and her knowledge of the subject matter is excellent. Even if I wasn’t an avid beekeeper, I feel like I’d still find these podcasts engaging and enjoyable (but luckily I’m a complete bee geek so it’s a win-win!). I can’t recommend this podcast highly...Read full review »

I’m so glad to have come across this show. I devour everything bee related I can since I’m new and so much to learn. You’ll find solid advice and a host that is easy to listen to. I also love that she lives in my state of NC!
Bozher via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/19
I haven’t been able to find other backyard beekeepers in my city and we don’t have a local organization. I wait eagerly for each new episode. They have been so helpful!

In the last year I started keeping bees with my uncle, who, though seasoned, has had a lot of trouble with overwintering. Your podcast has offered a lot of information and encouragement to help our bees survive the upcoming winter. And probiotics! it makes so much sense, I’m excited to see if the...Read full review »

Such a brilliant perspective. It’s a journey of exploration and compounding wisdom. She’s true to herself. Both humble and humorous. Truly one of the treasures that come from a raw podcast. Massive gains for the listener.

As a beekeeper I always enjoy conversations and points of view from other Beekeepers. This podcast provides another point of view and advice, but more importantly it is backed up with research and personal success. Keep providing this platform of collaboration and engaging conversation.

Based upon US practice but equally applicable to the UK, the shows on sustainable beekeeping using NUCs is very good advice. Nice and easy presentation, love it.

Just finished listening to the two podcasts on hive inspection. A thought I kept running into was my poor attempts at preparing for an inspection. I pull off that super ( it’s heavy) now where to place it? On the ground? It’s full of bees! No Queen excluder, wow my Queen may be inside! Now after...Read full review »
