Bryan Copeland will cover the topic of building swarm traps and trapping swarms. This is a good one even for new beekeepers. Instead of buying bees and bringing them in from another region, why not trap local bees already acclimated to our area, and best of all, they're free! Building a couple swarm traps is simple, and cheap! It's time to get those traps ready as swarm season is among us! Bring your questions as we'll break out into a round table discussion after Bryan's presentation.
