Beekeeping Classes

A practical guide through your first three months of beekeeping. Designed to build confidence β€” not overwhelm.

Beginner Beekeeping

This class is designed to strengthen and simplify. Rather than covering everything at once, we walk through exactly what you need to know β€” month by month β€” for a solid, confident first season.

You'll learn in a cozy, dimly lit environment with a hot cup of tea. Small group setting means real answers to your specific questions.

  • How to install a nucleus colony
  • Basic colony structure and function
  • Bee nutrition and seasonal management
  • The Langstroth hive β€” parts and purpose
  • Tools needed and local regulations
  • Beekeeping calendar of tasks
  • What to look for and when to inspect
  • How to spot eggs and find the queen
  • Your questions answered
