In this episode, Jeff and Becky are joined by Kamon Reynolds, the beekeeper behind the North American Honey Bee Expo. Kamon shares his journey from a young beekeeper to managing a full-time business and organizing a major beekeeping conference.

Listeners will learn about Kamon’s strategies for managing queen issues, including the importance of having backup queens and splitting hives to maintain strong colonies. He also discusses preparing for the dearth period in Tennessee, when nectar flow slows and robbing increases.

Kamon highlights the growth of the North American Honey Bee Expo, which started with 225 attendees and has grown to over 3,200. The expo features a vast trade show with over 140 vendors, offering the latest in beekeeping equipment and innovations. Kamon emphasizes the value of networking, sharing ideas, and discovering new products at the expo.

Additionally, Kamon talks about his YouTube channel, where he provides honest reviews of beekeeping products and shares real-world experiences. His goal is to create a relatable and informative resource for beekeepers. The episode also covers the Next Gen Bee program, supporting young beekeepers with free conference admission, hotel reimbursement, and beekeeping gear.
