Karen will be speaking about “Healthy Honey Bee Colonies.”

Many factors play into honey bee health. A beekeeper needs to see and recognize health in order to see problems. The first thing you must know about bee diseases is what a healthy colony looks like. Beekeeping is a science and an art. The science of beekeeping can be very black and white, but the art of beekeeping can not be taught. It takes education, intuition, common sense, instinct, and foresight to successfully manage bee colonies.
