OPENED up a HORIZONTAL BEE HIVE and found this!

Doug and Stacy live OFF GRID in a LOG CABIN. Living the PIONEER LIFE in the 21st century has a lot of challenges. The one thing we need are bees to pollinate the food we need to survive. This video is great for beginner BEE KEEPERS as we walk you through what to look for and how BEE HIVES WORK! check out our friend Dr Leo @ horizontalhive.com

About OFF GRID with DOUG and STACY:
We moved to our 11 acres in 2011 from a large city in the Midwest with zero carpentry and farming skills. We live with no solar / wind power / public water or well. We share our adventure to a sustainable life, growing our own food from vegetables to meat. We post videos DAILY and they range from HOW TO to EVERYDAY LIFE and NUTRITION on the off grid homestead. We were city folks just like you probably and wanted to enjoy life and have more control over our food. We share food recipes as well as natural remedies.

Great website !

Just picked up "Keeping Bees With a Smile" a few weeks ago and it is great!

[@VojvodinaNet]

@@4everhdt Very Well written indeed.

Why isn’t there more videos on horizontal hives? Doug and Stacy, how are your horizontal hives doing?

[@OFFGRIDwithDOUGSTACY]

[@daddykirbs]

Dr. Leo is a true inspiration for beekeepers that want to do things naturally! Thank you Doug for giving him a platform!

[@debbiemusgrove676]

Thank you Dr. Leo, your patience and information about bees is phenomenal.

[@pamelawherey4583]

This is phenomenal to view. This gentleman has a tremendous knowledge of everything about honey bees.

[@lindashoemaker9117]

So much helpful instruction! Thank you both, Dr. Leo and Doug, for making these excellent and enjoyable videos available FREE!

[@darkisland04]

As someone who's allergic to bee stings, it's amazing to me to watch how casually and confidently he handles the bees. And without much protection or getting stung.

[@MzClementine]

My favorite time in the garden is early morning. When the bees are collecting pollen... so comforting.

[@mikevictor5945]

Carefull the bees won't know what to do go out get food or land on you. That's trickery

[@pearldunn6672]

You let us all get close to Bee's to observe what a calm demeanor will allow us to see. Thanks for being such good caregivers to this much needed species!

[@ritamoore3940]

I love Dr. Leo. He explains things so well and he even cracks jokes.🐝

[@waybackacresfarm2901]

I cannot believe how much information you all are putting out with these bee videos. We do not have any bees yet, but hopefully in the next couple of years. Thank you so much!

[@michaelfox5824]

Very informative, Thank You Both and God's Blessings To All

[@tommychew6544]

Dr. Leo is such a great resource for information! I'm enjoying going back through the older bee videos.

[@darrelpelham]

Dr Leo, you really need to put more videos on Your website. You have good knowledge. Thanks D&S

[@FloryJohann]

Why? To misinform more viewers?

[@bradkuhlemeyer8422]

Please tell me what u mean I am brand new at this

[@FloryJohann]

@@bradkuhlemeyer8422 look at dave-cushman(dot) net website. just about everything there to know about bees. Or best youtube channel in my eyes that explains everything about bees without pushing sales ...look up Kamon Reynolds Tennessee Bees. If you want to keep bees alive listen to Kamon......and treat the bees for mites now which will reflect your winter survival and you may need to feed them now. Want more contacts for info, let me know. There are speakers on youtube like Palmer and others. Just wanting to let you know that I do not get anything for it, if you follow those links. I just hate to see that informatial commercial beekeepers are taken money and only telling half the information to keep bees in good condition.

[@MrLugerdog]

@@FloryJohann It is good that you are comfortable and confident in the beekeeping practices you have learned, but it is sad that you have closed your mind to alternative methods. Maybe you have based your comments on Dr. Sharashkin on just this video and are ignorant on the scope of his work and teachings. Is he making a good living selling his books and products? I hope so! It is the American way and profit is not a dirty word, yet he has plenty of free plans and information on his website. I'll be buying some books and using his plans to build a Layens hive to see how it works for me. But I'll have to treat my mite susceptible Italians to keep them alive this winter and hope to catch some wild swarms next spring.

[@FloryJohann]

​@@MrLugerdog I seen more than this video and I hope the book you are buying is not a copy and paste with a bit of re-write from books that where published in the 1940's and 60's like most books out there. A lot of those alternative methods are re-runs from many years ago that where proven mostly not to be so effective . Sorry if I gave the impression that I am not interested in alternative methods. I am always interested in them and I am working on alternatives....like open a hive and working bees at the middle of the night with an flashlight where the bees do not even pay attention that you have the hive open and you are working the hive, which I had success last Monday doing so. Or having alternative ways to stop the 43 bacteria and viruses caused by varroa mites or prevent wet honey ( less than 18% moister) to ferment without having bad effect on bees or humans because there is no actual chemical involved, another alternative thing I am playing with which I will be testing on a hive next year. I do not have problems if someone makes money with bees....but I have a problem if they go on line and telling folks false information so foks lose their bees because of it and then have to go back to buy new bees and or equipment to replace because someone told only 1/2 the storry or strictly lied about it or omitted things, Have a nice day ....sorry this got so long.

[@lisabaughman887]

Always love seeing Dr. Leo. Thank you for another great video about bee keeping.

[@colleenrichmond1947]

Thank you Doug and Dr Leo. I always enjoy all the information you both bring on bee keeping. Keep them coming!!

[@TheWonderwy]

I enjoy the bee journey., And have Learned SO much from these videos. Your bee journey has been up and down over the years and THAT is a better teacher than perfection. Thank you for being humble and sharing with us your Truth.

I so appreciate Dr. Leo and his expertise. Thank you.

Dr Leo is the best. He’s so patient and knowledgeable and explains things simply which in my mind makes him the best in the business. Just love him. Very very interesting

[@connieericksen8663]

Thank you for all your knowledge regarding bees. You are so interesting.

[@angelicamcduff7741]

Dr Leo was one of speakers that drew us to the conference! Love learning from the BEST! We bought Bee keeping with a smile while we were there and have started reading it. We plan on having only horizontal hives! Thanks for all the great info and for sharing it openly with everyone.

[@judithjohnson2111]

I love this evertime Dr.Leo comes to the farm. I am totally fascinated with the bee's & wish I had a hive.T.Y. Doug.💙

Meeting Dr. Leo at the Homesteading Life Conference this week was a highlight. He is such a knowledgeable and generous man. I can’t wait to continue learning with him. Thanks, Doug and Stacy. The Conference was awesome!

Thanks Sallie! See ya in 2020

I kept getting people to watch the bee videos! They are so good, even if just to understand the importance of bees!

[@barbaratarico8343]

Thank you for brining Dr Leo back. Amazing!

[@lindaleahjohnson6637]

I've watched this entire series of horizontal bee hives and I'm hooked! I'm going to attempt to catch a swarm this fall after building the box from the plans on Dr Leo's site. Keeping bees has been on my mind for over 3 years and this is how I want to start. Thank you Doug and Dr Leo :)

[@danskisbees7348]

You'll love it, it's addictive!

[@claytoneads6842]

Hmmm...It might be a little easier to catch bees in your swarm trap in the Spring instead of the Fall.Perhaps they will survive better without having to build up Winter stores, and can populate much better. :-)

[@danskisbees7348]

@@claytoneads6842 Your right, but if she catches one this Fall, they might survive with her rather than dying in the wild from the lack of stores.

[@suem6004]

I wish I had found you before I got package bees and traditional hives. Your system makes so much sense. Please make more videos.

[@lindahicks7831]

Fantastic info.We watch to learn more! Thank you!

[@wendyrowland7787]

Dr Leo has taught me a lot and I am glad he has also taught Doug a lot. I recall Doug did not believe in insulating the original hives for the winter. The horizontal hives make complete sense. Happy bees, more honey.

[@mari-atonjalkanen9920]

Thank you dr Leo S. Blessed are the AMAZING BEES.

[@familyfungi]

Seriously, LOVE Dr. Leo. Would love to see more of him. It would be great if he started his own channel! Maybe you guys can give him some pointers and direction. Thanks Doug and Stacy! Long time following y'all's journey. We've implemented some of your recipes and philosophy in our lives already.

[@wytwabit]

I don't have bees, but I think I would like to have bees one day (when I'm young again in Christ's Kingdom). Thank you for sharing this very nice video!

So glad you found Dr. Leo, he is a great teacher to learn from.Oh hey, missed you guys.

[@honeyspringshomestead1411]

Those are some great looking frames of freshly made comb and capped honey at about 18:10 into the video. Also, thank you for explaining the benefits in other videos about topbar hives. Since switching we have not lost a hive during winter. Thank you thank you thank you, and the bees thank you too.

[@OFFGRIDwithDOUGSTACY]

[@funnyfarmdad9997]

Being a beekeeper myself I love learning from Dr. Leo but every time I listen to him I feel like I’m listening to Father Guido Sarducci.

[@holliglendenning3149]

Gene Harmon lmao!! I kept thinking, who does he sound like? And you are spot on!!!

[@StoneKathryn]

That is sooo funny! Now that you said that I hear it from the Father too! Someone else said he sounded like Peter Lorry. Can you hear that? I like his voice!

[@Crystal-vp7wr]

Thank you so much!! I’ve just started bee keeping and have needed this information! Wish I had it a week ago but I am so happy to know I don’t need to look at every frame. Recently I was advised to look at every frame and try to locate the queen but I’ve seen brood larvae and pollen being brought in so I think all is well

[@marcellacruser5382]

I have a total Dr. Leo crush! Your vids with him are total gold. Thanks, Doug! You've inspired me to try my hand at bee keeping.

[@waggybaggy1466]

What also helps if you are into natural beekeeping, is placing a tiny bit - like a fingerdrop of soap at the entrance. the bees sniffle that up, take the smell all through their hive (natural soap!!! the one you wash yourself with almost all the time) and then they recognise your smell too. making them less agressive towards you.

[@waggybaggy1466]

natural soap, or just a tiny scratch of barsoap.

[@williamswagerty5238]

Good job with this video Dr. Leo and Doug!
