Description

This group is intended for all those interested in bee-friendly, sustainable beekeeping based on the hive of Abbé Emile Warré (?-1951) and described in the book Beekeeping For All (http://www.mygarden.me.uk/beekeeping_for_all.pdf). It will include the various modifications of that hive introduced by, for example, J-M, Frèrès & J-C Guillaume, Marc Gatineau, Roger Delon etc. It will also include the almost identical beekeeping concept developed by Abbé Christ (1739-1813) and resurrected by Johannes Thür in his book Bienenzucht. Naturgerecht einfach und erfolgsicher (Wien, Gerasdorf, Kapellerfeld, 2nd ed., 1946), two parts of which are available in English at http://www.mygarden.me.uk/thur.pdf.
Links to Warré beekeeping sites in English, French and German can be found at http://warre.biobees.com/index.html, together with a beginner's guide and details of modifications and historical precursors of the Warré hive.
