Beekeeping together, without treating for varroa — it can be done!

In this project, beekeepers worked together to develop a method to control the varroa mite without treating the colonies. They did this from August 2019 to May 2022 and took part in the National Honey Program 2020–2022. The beekeepers worked with their own resilient colonies at a single apiary without treatment against the varroa mite. The brochure shares their experiences and stories and includes contact details for more information. The aim is for other beekeepers to draw inspiration from this brochure.
