KBA Field Day w/ Ted Sims @Kentucky Country Day

A spring hive inspection involves carefully examining the condition of bee colonies as winter transitions into spring. This inspection typically focuses on assessing the health and strength of the colony, checking for signs of disease or pests, evaluating the queen's performance and egg-laying activity, and ensuring that the hive has an adequate food supply. Beekeepers may also use this opportunity to perform any necessary hive maintenance or adjustments to support the colony's growth and productivity during the upcoming season. Overall, a spring hive inspection plays a crucial role in maintaining the well-being and productivity of bee colonies as they prepare for the warmer months ahead.

KBA Educational Session on Honey/Beekeeping Competitions @ Kentucky State Fair

Join us at the State Fair for a tour of the Kentucky State Beekeepers Association exhibit. This is not our usual meeting, but we will have a chance to support the KSBA and our own Beth Wagner and (hoping) our State Apiarist, Tammy Potter and the American Honey Queen. Topics include how to submit honey products, judging and general beekeeping topics. Admission to the Fair is required, but we promise an informative and fun evening!
