Here I will share beekeeping tips, answer questions, and show extraction highlights. Subjects will include:

• Where to locate your hive,

• Which tools you need and how to used them,

• Installing new packages of bees,

• Swarm captures,

• Pest management & Problem Solving,

• Honey Harvests,

• Routine Hive Inspections,

• Requeening,

• Making nucs or splits,

  

  I’ve been beekeeping in Sonoma County since 2002: capturing swarms and removing hives from buildings. We are proud members of SCBA. In 2023, I started mentoring fellow beekeepers, helping with difficult maneuvers, and generally helping people get more comfortable with bees.
