** Just a month away! ------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.kalamazoobeeclub.com/bee-school-2015/Kalamazoo Bee School will be held on Saturday, February 21 -- just over a month from today . . . If you haven't registered yet, what are you waiting for? You know you want to join us for this full day of education, networking, and fun!

This year's Bee School offers a dedicated "Beginners Track" for new or wanna-bee beekeepers, a nice selection of topics for the intermediate and advanced beekeepers, as well as a handful of general interest beekeeping topics. We have finalized our schedule—it's available on our website or you can download it here (http://www.kalamazoobeeclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/KBS15_schedule.pdf) . The classes are clearly marked—all the Beginners Track classes are in one room, but broken into three sessions, the intermediate or advanced skills are noted with and asterisk on the schedule, and the rest are general interest beekeeping topics that everyone can enjoy. So take a look at the schedule and plan your day! REGISTER NOW (https://www.eventbrite.com/e/kalamazoo-bee-school-2015-tickets-14509826281)

** Mountain Camp Winter Feeding ------------------------------------------------------------ It’s great when your bees provide food for you, but every so often in a beekeeper’s career, she provides food for the bees. There are a million opinions about whether or not one should feed bees throughout the year and a million and one opinions about how this feeding should happen. I’m simply going to explain one feeding method that we have tried this year, the reason why, and our experience with it thus far. [Read More . . .
