Our Online Courses Are 50% For A Limited Time

 



Only 30 days until Spring! Hard to believe with the crazy winter weather that has paralyzed the US over the last week. My brother lives in the deep south and last night he lost power from an ice storm and a limb fell on his truck.

So many people are worried about their bees making it through this snow and ice and very cold temperatures. So many people want to know what they can do now to help their bees in the winter. There is really not much to do, maybe wrap the hive and certainly make sure there is a Winter-Bee-Kind as a food source on top. Otherwise, we just have to hope they will make it.

Those who have not taken a class and did not manage their colonies correctly during the summer and fall are likely the ones who will lose the most hives this winter. It is so important to take a beekeeping course so you can avoid common mishaps. I've produced a new video today encouraging new beginners to take a class to avoid these mishaps.

We've been struggling whether we could afford to offer 50% off our online courses again for 2021 as we did for a few months in 2020. But, we decided to show our desire to help beekeepers learn and also have a hobby to enjoy during the pandemic. Most club classes and college courses are still iffy due to COVID-19, so we are once again offering all online courses at 50% February 18 - April 18th. Take advantage of this offer now!

Save the travel expenses of hotels, gas and food. No juggling schedules. Study at your own pace, when you have time. Study in the safety and comfort of your home. You will receive download instructions on your receipt/invoice after purchase. Select your 50% OFF courses below:
