(Think about bees as natural architects!) She shares her fascination with bees as eusocial creatures and with their ability to efficiently make their own food and homes.<\/p>\n<p>Hear about the 70 to 110 hives that Christina manages and the seasonality of beekeeping in urban Pittsburgh, both from the perspective of the bees and the beekeeper. Christina talks about the high-level craft of creating honey and how she encourages consumers to appreciate her Certified Naturally Grown honey as an artisan farm product.<\/p>\n<p>Dive into what takes place behind the scenes of commercial-scale beekeeping, including the industrialized system of migratory beekeeping, commodified honey processing and labeling, and bee welfare. You\u2019ll hear about the study Christina is participating in with a researcher at Chatham University about the question of what truly sustainable honey production would look like.<\/p>\n<p>Get to know Burgh Bees, a beekeeper education group in Pittsburgh, and Co-Nectar, the honey tasting room, cafe, and art space that Christina and family members are opening in 2023. At the end, Christina touches on the terroir and different flavor profiles of honey.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/apoidea-apiary.com\/\">Apoidia Apiary website<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/apoidea-apiary.us9.list-manage.com\/subscribe?u=9135fe217ec57cbf3a6764c83&amp;id=ce012df0d1\">Sign up for Christina\u2019s newsletter<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/teeteebeezie\/\">Christina Joy Neumann on Instagram<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/conectar.flora.to.table\/\">Co-Nectar on Instagram<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.burghbees.org\/\">Burgh Bees website<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HOBBY FARMS PRESENTS: GROWING GOOD<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5349,"featured_media":96389,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10465],"tags":[11047,10943],"class_list":["post-106590","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-podcast","tag-hobby-farms-presents-growing-good","tag-podcast"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.0 (Yoast SEO v24.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Episode 47: Christina Joy Neumann - Hobby Farms<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Episode 47: Growing Good with Christina Joy Neumann!
