Welcome to the sixteenth podcast from the team at kiwimana. This week we had a chat with Phil Chandler The Barefoot Beekeeper and Kevin Inglin BK Corner Podcast.

This was a very special podcast, we brought together all the regular beekeeping podcasters to discuss beekeeping news. Hopefully we can make this a regular thing. Please comment below if you enjoyed the show.
