The videos on this channel are created, edited, and shared by Jason Crook, the owner and operator. As a Master Certified Beekeeper from the University of Montana, Jason has almost a decade of experience in beekeeping and enjoys sharing his insights with others. It's important to note that beekeeping practices can vary depending on the local environment, and the videos on the Bohemia Apiary channel showcase what works for Jason's own bee colonies, rather than providing a universal prescription. While the concepts in the videos are generally endorsed by many beekeepers, it's also crucial to listen, observe, and learn from your own bees as well as other beekeeping resources.

As Jason himself says, "Beekeeping is more than a hobby, it's an obsession."
