September 2024 Preparing Your Hives for Winter
Monday, September 16, 2024
Monday, 7:00 to 8:30 pm Q & A 6:30 to 7:00 pm
Speaker: Dave Noble (Alias "Red Beard")
Dave Noble began breeding and keeping honey bees quite by accident just over 28 years ago when he was trying to get some extra credit for a college course while majoring in Plant Pathology at OSU. He ended up working at the Universities' Honey Bee Research Lab for almost a decade. There he discovered a true passion for honey bees as well as developed a joy for teaching others how to care for, and appreciate, these magnificent little beasts. He is the owner, operator of Red Beard Bees, a business dedicated to breeding better bees and training better beekeepers.
Creating a Winter Prep Checklist– There always seem to be more tasks to get bees ready for winter dormancy than there are hours of daylight to get them done. Figuring out what, how, and when to do winter prep can certainly be overwhelming, but it is arguably the most important job a keeper of bees has. From how to prioritize winter prep tasks to which methods are best for your bees and you, “Creating a Winter Prep Check List” will help you manage and make sense of winter prep.
