After seeing there were bees being raised along a stockade fence off the side of a highway, Tony Lulek was inspired enough to educate himself on raising bees too. That was nearly seven years ago. Today Tony is a Beekeeper at Little Beehive Farm in the midst of his suburban Massachusetts neighborhood. This is an illustrative, insightful and inspirational video by Molly McDonough (on twitter: @mollyhmcd) who captures well the passion this “radical” beekeeper has for raising bees in his backyard.
