Event: learn about colony personality

Post by donstu » Tue Jul 15, 2014 10:46 am

You have heard that bees personality varies from colony to colony. Many hobby beekeepers get little exposure to this reality because they only have one or two colonies. Come and see four colonies in one site. Experience personalities from tranquil to runners and from gentle to hostile. Bring your suit with veil. During this event we will look at Warre, top-bar and two Langstroth hives. We will intentionally leave the smoker alone. Smokeless inspection will reveal the true personality of each colony. Q and A will follow the inspections.
Please RSVP to 303-248-6677 so I'll know how many to expect.
