The weather is SLOWLY getting warmer. I have updated the wintering page at the bottom with what happened in my hives this winter. Check it out if you get time.
A lot happening, and a lot about to happen. I am moving hives in preparation for ground thaw. The Pallets and cinder blocks with 4x4's across them will be replaced with permanent stands.
Swarm traps are ready, more bees are ordered and I have queens coming to do splits with. It will be an exciting year with a lot to learn, and I hope to document everything to add to the information already here, so stand by for a lot of updates to this site as we move deeper into spring. The frantic springtime activities are about to begin. Cleaning up from winter, doing maintenance on buildings and bee hives, planting the garden, getting the pig pen revamped, fixing tractors and trucks.. and I hope to eventually add a forum.
Keep those bees happy!
