This time we’ll break down how we do hive inspections.  We’ll review timing, frequency, what we’re looking for, and record keeping


We’ll also have a quick show-and-tell highlighting some of our favorite beekeeping books and everyday beekeeping items.  Bring along any of your own favorite books or gadgets


  • Discussion and Q&A starting at 10am.  Bring your questions; this is a great group to help troubleshoot anything going on in your hive!

  • Live demo at 11am.  We will inspect a hive at the UD Apiary Teaching Yard and review our techniques one more time.

  • If you’d like to bring a contribution, a sign-up sheet can be found here
