Summer is slipping away, and we're easing into Fall. One might think that the beekeeping season is winding down, but nothing could be further from the truth! Right now, we're thinking about equipment that may need swapped out and brought in for repair. We're thinking about making candy boards. We're thinking about hive weight, feeding regimens, mouse guards, and that potential surplus that is your Fall honey harvest!

The goldenrod flow is on so stinky hives are a good thing! Are your bees healthy and ready for winter? Join us in September as Dave Broxterman tells us how to prepare our hives for the winter!
