Commercial Migratory Beekeeper Barry Hart

[@waynewatson-cedarbranchhiv8491]

Wow what a world of knowledge is in this man, he's probably forgotten more than most beekeepers will ever learn. Thanks Bob for another great video 👍

[@jbissonette45]

You are SO blessed to be able to work with your son.

[@hillmt]

I have 48 hives of Barry's bees in my backyard here in northern Michigan. It is fascinating to hear the story behind these well traveled bees.

[@myron2386]

Another great video with another great beekeeper. Thanks Bob!

[@MinnesotaBeekeeper]

I can understand why you two have been friends for so long. Thank you Barry for your time and story. Talk about commitment and insight.

[@cliveharrison733]

Thanks Bob really heartwarming the way he talks about his bees much like yourself. Only have a few hives but really enjoy seeing what they’re doing or not doing, every inspection seems like a school day and I love it!

[@calebhollen5316]

Thank you Bob for posting. Barry Hart sure puts in the work.

[@beekeepinggarden165]

Fabulous interview with Bary 🐝🐝🐝💪👍👌 thanks Bob

[@tomkingsley4398]

Thanks Bob for a great video. Your friends are so interesting and inspiring I always look forward to your postings.

[@beebob1279]

The pollinator made a comment that I remember from my mentor. My mentor was a pollinator in New Jersey. He ran about 1500 hives. He would pollinate with about half the hives and build new hives every year. The reason he did that was because pollination would trash his hives. By the end of the pollination season the colonies were basically worthless to keep. So, during the season he was splitting hives to nucs, raised queens or bought them, and re-built what he needed the next year. The pesticides and traveling around South Jersey took its toll on the bees.

[@bobbinnie9872]

Sadly that's a common story.

[@altaylor293]

Thanks Bob for sharing. Really interesting video.

[@justinthacker3144]

Fascinating, another legend.

Audio great on my end. Thanks for posting.

[@jtelander]

Thanks Bob, I enjoyed this.

[@goldensilver793]

Audio was fine here...Thanks for the video...I only have one hive and two more in "standby"...far cry from 4000, but when you get "stung" with the satisfaction of keeping bees, it's hard to turn back..

[@honeydropfarm1605]

It's impressive how he gets everything done, and still manages to take Saturday and Sunday off.

[@bobbinnie9872]

I agree. He must really hustle.

[@framcesmoore]

Ha Bob good video Thank you for sharing it does your friend Barry or his son make videos beekeeping Thanks and have a great week

[@TennesseeTim38451]

Please send a big thank you to Barry for sharing his thoughts and business model, feeding techniques timelines and all. To Bob the creator of the video I want to tell you thank you for what you are doing for the hobby/industry, depending on personal view point each video has something for the hobbiest to the commercial bee keepers. The information folks like you kamon & Greg shares, it would be impossible to put a dollar amount on.

[@bobbinnie9872]

Thank you.

[@markkersh8548]

Enjoyed the video Bob. The sound was good on my end, didn’t hear any garballedness on my end but then my hearings not that good so maybe I just missed it!

[@jeremyhuggins8796]

Hey Bob, sound is garbled on my phone as well. Read in comments where someone Bluetoothed to wireless ear buds and it worked. I Bluetoothed to my LG surround sound and it works great! Hope others will be able to do something similar.

great video....Barry said he does internal feeders now...wonder which one he uses??

[@bobbinnie9872]

He uses the "Mother Load" brand.

[@ACH1EVE_CH1M]

I remember when Barry blew his shoulder out. I thought he'd never get out of that sling he was in. I was just a kid then. He was married to my aunt at the time. I always liked him.

[@bobbinnie9872]

My experiences with Barry have all been positive.👍

[@namentatic4978]

Too funny man to listen to. Thanks, Bob.

[@michaelhall7921]

Dear Bob Binnie Thank you for the reply....... The subject of RNA must be a very serious and hopeful subject and especially to professionals such as yourself. I am amazed that you find the time to help folks on the You Tube as you and lots of others do. We are sincerely indebted to you. I see Barry Hart apparently is using the RNA system to good effect through Green Light bio sciences but because it's 'cutting edge' it may not as yet be well publicised. The main item is the welfare of the bees and the sooner the chemical treatments are no longer needed the better. Whatever is the best for the bees to counteract the horrible varroa must be done. Some shun using antibiotics for humans but when an antibiotic is needed then I would use it! Kill or cure is the saying? At 81 = been there, done that, or death. Which would the sensible individual choose? Anyone with an enquiring nature must surely see the potential of the RNA? I notice Dr Boncristiani mentioned it lately ! Best Wishes and thanks a million. from Mick the engineer in the UK

[@brucebrown652]

Audio sounds good here!

[@nynotetis]

Sound was bad when I tried to listen it through my phone, but it's perfect with my PC. Just try to play this video in other device and it should work on one or another. Thanks Bob for the excelent video.

[@MinnesotaBeekeeper]

Same here.

[@martinr6107]

Audio still underwater here on phone. Tried laptop using chrome browser and works fine.

[@willemaugustyn-goussard9213]

For some reason the sound is scrambled and somewhat muted. Just checked and I don’t experience it with other vids.

[@michaelhall7921]

Near Barry I watched your video regarding the Green Sciences video on RNA which was exceptional due to it being at the cutting edge of killing varroa mites. The fact of not having to use chemicals on bees is wonderful. I sent an email to that company but have heard nothing. Please do you know anything about the time when such method re RNA will be available? I'd appreciate it if you can advise something constructive..... Thank you

[@bobbinnie9872]

Hi Michael. Sorry, I do not know that. You might try emailing Jenifer Berry or Keith Deleplane at the University of Georgia with that question. You should be able to search on line for their contact info.

[@shannonjohnson6160]

My blue tooth ear buds didn't work good with sound but it does irked fine on the phone speaker, I gone through settings on phone change the auto to movie and now my Bluetooth works fine, check settings

[@honeydropfarm1605]

My takeaways: --your product should be so good it sells itself. --Customers will be happier with your honey if you sell it to smaller packers because it will be more consistent. --Keep things simple: you don't HAVE to raise your own queens, mix your own feeding stimulant, and buy expensive pumps. --Be honest and generous, that's what counts. --You can have a very good business without being a technology expert.

[@AmbrosianBeeCo]

Bob/Barry - whats the secret to maintaining your health (back/shoulders) etc as a long term commercial beekeeper. Being in this for 10 years closing in on 40 years old - that's becoming my biggest question...Appreciate your videos and knowledge.

[@bobbinnie9872]

I think that over time the muscle groups needed get stronger as long as you don't overdo it. Many beekeepers push themselves too hard and do things they shouldn't do. You have to know your limits. Or maybe it's just luck.

Genetics and God's grace!

[@honeydropfarm1605]

@@bobbinnie9872 In a one man operation where you're running as many hives as you can by yourself, how much is deskwork and how much is actual beekeeping? I know that's an impossible question, just looking for some thoughts. Assuming making one's own equipment.

[@bobbinnie9872]

​@@honeydropfarm1605 In the early days, when it was just me, desk work was minimal. Maybe 5 or 10 percent of my time. Much different now, but of course this isn't just a beekeeping business now. Plus I have a full time bookkeeper now to help.
