On Beekeeping

On Beekeeping: An essay exploring the limitations and slippages of collective memory channelled through changing beekeeping practices in rural mid-Wales. This text reflects upon the burgeoning effects of Monsanto, Bayer and transnational landlords on the ecology, social practices and diminishing health of the honey bee, wild bee species, other pollinators, and the effects these companies scraping profits have on wider ecology.
