About

I think I can safely say that most of here in Wisconsin are ready for warmer days.  I’m getting tired of cold mornings and having to bundle up if I want to go for a walk.  I’m ready for warm sunshine on my face and smelling the flowers.  My guest today is also looking forward to seeing the flowers bloom and not just because he likes their beauty.  You see flowers and blossoms are a huge part of his life and business.  Where there are blossoms, so are his bees.  Today I’m talking with Kent Pegorsch.  Kent has been a beekeeper for over 40 years and is currently the president of Wisconsin Honey Producers.  I wanted to find out from Kent what it takes to keep bees and what are some thing you can do to help bees in your area.   Of course, we also talked about honey and the impact the honey industry has on Wisconsin agriculture.
