Putting the bees to bed for the Winter...

This weekend we put the bees to bed for the winter with these very cool bottom boards

 Tim made these which we also use as Candy Boards to feed the bees during the winter...

It was a beautiful day this past Saturday and the bees were out enjoying the sun.

However, I had a little help from a new aspiring beekeeper, Rob. He has chosen beekeeping as his Senior Project in High School and is coming over learning the ropes. I hope he becomes inspired to become a good beekeeper, love bees as much as I do and realize their importance on our agriculture as well as the mark they make in our world.
