New Beekeeping records a search for the most suitable way to keep bees in the garden under modern conditions. It draws ideas from many past bee-masters to form a new overall approach.

New Beekeeping manages bees within the natural patterns of colony life. Manipulations are used to influence the rate at which the colony matures, but the bees are never treated mechanically.

The Author believes any colony which does not attempt to swarm when in the right condition is biologically decadent. The management methods both build large colonies and control the swarming instinct.

A detailed plan of operation sets out how to manage a colony in twelve visits over a year.
