We welcome all members to spend time in the apiary learning from experienced beekeepers and to learn new skills. We normally meet during the beekeeping season but other days are available upon request to accommodate as needed.  Refer to the Members only page for apiary days.

 

Some of the skills we teach

Basic hive inspections

How to split a hive

How to find the queen

How to requeen a hive

How to raise queens

How to test and treat for mites

How to successfully overwinter in our area

And so much more.

 

The apiary is located behind Stedmans Bee Supply. Please only bring your bee suit, no tools. We have tools and smokers.
