The Prokopovych Beekeeping Museum

Mr John Caldeira, a volunteer from the United States, shares his photographs of Ukrainian beekeeping and gives a virtual guided tour to the Prokopovych Museum in Kyiv.

"The museum is named to honor Petro Prokopovych, a Ukrainian beekeeper who lived between 1775 and 1850.  He is credited with being among the first to invest bee hives with movable frames."
