greatly reduced prices for several varieties to plant in our hedgerows Yeah

Top Bar Hive Of one our active duty members donated a top bar hive to the club Theymoved it here from Hawaii so it needs some upgrades I have made
some modifications to it I need to get the roof set up for Washington weather I am looking for some cedar shingles to put on the roof If you have some that
you can donate please let Larry know We will be raffling the top bar off
during the Washington State Fair
Education You should be doing inspections ever 10shy14 days You should have your bees inplace and seeing lots of eggs larva and capped brood If you see eggs feel freeto cut out your swarm cells If your hive is doing well you should have enough
bees to put on a second box
As I have helped some people do hive inspections please be aware that deepscan weigh up to 80shy100 pounds at the peak of the season A western can be 50shy70 pounds Now is the time to change up boxes before the bees start buildingand laying If you need to move to smaller lighter boxes do so You can over
winter a deep and two westerns and switch them out next spring
