He started beekeeping in 2003 with National hives. In 2006 he was introduced to the Warré hive, and populated six of them in 2007. He now winters about 10 Warrés and a few frame hives. In 2010, Northern Bee Books published his book on apicentric beekeeping entitled The Bee-friendly Beekeeper (reprinted 2012), and they invited him to write a manual on Natural Beekeeping with the Warré Hive, which was published 2013.
