A Healthy Beehive
Bees do a great job keeping a healthy colony. But it's important that the beekeeper has a strong sense of when things might go bad!
Threats to Bees
Our bees face a wide range of threats, both natural and man-made. Although they have remarkable resilience and effective ways to combat many challenges, the informed beekeeper understands the potential risks and how our bees can sometimes benefit from a helping hand.
Inspecting Your Beehive
The beehive inspection is a time of wonder for the beekeeper and an opportunity to experience the joy of beekeeping, right up close. It's also an important time to observe and learn. A successful beekeeper has taken the time to watch and interpret what is happening inside the hive.
Reaping the Rewards
The extraction of honey is perhaps the most well-known reward for the beekeeper. But there are so many other ways in which we enjoy and value our beekeeping, from the tangible to the emotional.
