New and returning beekeepers will learn methods for harvesting, extracting, and bottling honey, natural disease control, and preparing your hives for the winter months.

We’ll do a full hive checkup (weather permitting) and taste urban honey fresh from the comb.  

We will also cover simple treatments to prevent pests and diseases, and review steps you need to take to help your bees survive the cold of winter.
