About

If you are serious about becoming a successful and proficient beekeeper, this 2.5hr or so theory-only introduction class will go beyond the basics and teach you some of the more advanced concepts necessary to be a successful beekeeper.
This "Intermediate to Advanced Concepts" class is the Level 202 of our popular three-part, certificate based, "BECOMING A NATURAL BEEKEEPER SERIES" (BNB Series), and a prerequisite to our 303 Hands-On Class with Les Crowder himself (this curriculum focuses on Natural Beekeeping and is carefully crafted to ensure our students understand Natural Beekeeping principles in a holistic manner not usually discussed in conventional beekeeping classes - so all parts of the Series work together).

This fast paced and shock full of content 202 class will introduce in a holistic manner the following concepts and basics of:
- NUC and Package Installation
- NUC and Package Basic Care
- Colony Reproduction and Mating
- Swarm catching and Apiary Increases
- Most common Pests and Diseases
- Integrated Pest Management Techniques for sustainable and efficient Pest and Disease control
- Best Natural Beekeeping Practices
- Avoiding stings
- Working with the bees, not against them
- Why, when, what, and how to feed your bees
- Why, when, and how to requeen
- Main harvesting/extracting methods
- Products of the Hive

A lot of valuable information will be covered in a short amount of time, so take notes or record audio clips, and we will send you a PDF summary of what we'll discuss to refer back to.
