Package Installation - Italian Bees

WORKSHOP FOR 2025 PACKAGE BUYERS ONLY

Attention all package buyers! April bring us more than gusty, crisp, rainy days. 'Tis also the season for packaged bees! On Saturday, April 5, 3-5 PM, Bill Lewis will demonstrate how to install a new package. If you have ordered bees for this spring, then this is the class for you! We will meet at the Willow Springs Bee Sanctuary. Please bring your suit and gloves. You’ll install packages at the Sanctuary and at our nearby Moore Community Garden hives. OPTIONAL: Next day, Sunday, April 6 right after the Monthly Club Meeting, Bill will return to the apiaries to make sure all is well. This will be a quick visit to make sure the bees are clustering, etc. Registered students are encouraged to attend on Sunday, if possible.
