We have no bees right now, so I am off to learn how to split bee colonies — come on the journey (and hopefully avoid getting stung 😅).

Beekeeping is a vital part of sustainable living, and bees are essential for pollination, biodiversity, and healthy ecosystems.

Have you ever worked with bees, or thought about getting into beekeeping? Let us know in the comments.

Thanks so much for your support, your comments, and for subscribing.

Sending love to you & yours.

After much planning, we sold up in England in 2021 and moved to rural Portugal to start a new life.

Living off the land, learning beekeeping, planting crops, and becoming more sustainable has been challenging but incredibly rewarding.

Homesteading in Portugal isn’t always easy, but the journey has been amazing.

Thanks for watching #HowardsPortugal — and a huge shout-out to all our channel members, subscribers, and viewers.
