Dr. Mark Winston wrote the definitive book on honey bee biology in 1987 and is a science communicator extraordinaire. His writings have appeared in the New York Times, Orion Magazine, and the Globe, and he’s a regular contributor to 2 Million Blossoms. He’s currently the Simon Fraser University Library Nonfiction Writer in Residence where he emphasizes the power of non-fiction writing to share knowledge.
Listen and hear his bee origin story and why his book on honey bee biology has endured through the ages. He has seen a lot of changes to the beekeeping industry throughout the years. We talk about some surprises he’s witnessed along the way and the future of pollination.
