TERRY OXFORD: SAN FRANCISCO ROOFTOP BEEKEEPER

Terry Oxford is a San Francisco-based beekeeper/advocate who has bees on the roofs of some of San Francisco's finest restaurants. Terry uses no pesticides, miticides, plastics or sugar in any of her hives, keeping them completely natural year round. In this short documentary by David Lawrence, she explains the unique challenges, techniques and tools she's mastered over the years to keep her bees thriving on rooftops in the city. This film was screened at the 2014 Slow Food Conference Terra Madre in Torino, Italy and in Rome at the Roman Urban Beekeepers Congress.
