August Beek Schedule

 As the season starts to slow, it’s important to continue weekly checks on your hives. This includes looking for robbers, identifying the queen, and checking for diseases and pests. During the months of August and September on the beekeeper’s calendar, colonies do the important work of building up populations to prepare for the winter, and it’s a good time for you to begin winter preparations, too. So treat your colonies if you do so & start on plans for overwintering.
