Catching a Bee Swarm - Farm Hand's Companion Extra

In this Farm Hand's Companion Extra, Pa Mac catches a spring honey bee swarm near his garden and puts it into a new hive box.

DISCLAIMER: Don't attempt to handle bee hives or swarms if you're not knowledgeable or trained in proper beekeeping and/or bee management.

Be sure and subscribe to the Farm Hand's Companion channel to keep up with the progress as Pa Mac takes an undeveloped piece of property and turns it into a small subsistence farm. Watch for new episodes of The Farm Hand's Companion Show as often as Pa Mac can crank 'em out and still run a small farm. (As long as he's alive and kicking, he's most assuredly farming and filming!)
