    2024/08/26
    In this episode, Jeff and Becky sit down with Etienne Tardiff, a beekeeper from the Yukon, who shares his unique approach to wintering bees in some of the coldest climates imaginable. Etienne, blending his engineering background with hands-on experience, discusses the importance of managing temperature and insulation within the hive during long, harsh winters. He explains his use of polystyrene hives and condensing hives to control moisture and maintain an optimal environment for the bees, which is crucial in areas with significant temperature fluctuations. Listeners will also learn about Etienne's data-driven approach to beekeeping, including his use of sensors to monitor temperature, humidity, and CO2 levels within the hive. This technology helps him make informed decisions that improve colony health and optimize honey consumption during the winter months. His insights offer valuable lessons for beekeepers looking to enhance their practices, whether dealing with extreme cold or more temperate climates. Additionally, the episode includes this month’s "audio postcard" from Dr. Dewey Caron, who discusses the critical role of communication in beekeeping, from bee-to-bee interactions to beekeeper management strategies.
