🐝 Bee-hind the Scenes 🐝

One of the hardest parts of beekeeping is knowing what to do when a colony begins to fail.

This colony was one of my strongest all summer, but over the past month, it has taken a turn for the worse. There could be several reasons for the decline—mites, a failing queen, or another unforeseen issue.

You can see the queen in this video. She is still being well attended by the other bees, but the brood pattern is extremely spotty, and there are no eggs to be found. There are also not many bees covering the frames. That’s a concerning sign that something isn’t right.

Many beekeepers might say it’s time to cut my losses, but I just can’t bring myself to give up on a queen if there’s still a chance she can pull through! ❤️🐝

So, rather than letting the colony dwindle, I decided to consolidate them into a 5-frame nucleus box, provide supplemental feed, and give them the best chance I can to recover.

Now, all I can do is cross my fingers and hope they can pull together, rebuild, and bounce back. 🤞🍯

Beekeeping isn’t always about harvesting honey and seeing strong, thriving colonies. Sometimes, it’s about making the best decision you can with the information you have—and giving a struggling colony one more chance.

🍂🐝 DID YOU KNOW? FALL IS FULL OF FOOD FOR POLLINATORS! 🐝🍯

When you think about flowers for honeybees, spring and summer probably come to mind—but fall can provide some important sources of nectar and pollen too!

🌻 Goldenrod, as you see pictured here, is one of the most important late-season nectar sources for honeybees.
🌸 Asters provide valuable nectar and pollen as other flowers begin to fade.
🌿 Late-blooming wildflowers can help provide bees with food as they prepare for the colder months ahead.

These late-season blooms are especially important because honeybees are working to build up their food stores before winter. 🍯🐝

So the next time you see a patch of goldenrod or fall wildflowers, remember—you may be looking at a bee buffet! 🌻🐝

Want to help the bees this fall? Leave those late-blooming flowers growing a little longer! 🍂💛

🐝 Weekend Activities! 🐝

We had a great time at Skill Sharing Saturday in Augusta, hosted by To A Tea, Inc., where we got to share our passion for beekeeping with the community! 🍯

One of the highlights was bringing along an observation hive, which is always a big hit! It’s such a fun way to give people an up-close look at the incredible world of honeybees. 🐝

And with the cooler weather settling in, the bees are loving it just as much as we are! 🍂🐝

A big thank you to everyone who stopped by to learn, ask questions, and show some love for the bees! ❤️

🐝🔍 Mite Check Day!

Keeping a close eye on our honeybee colonies means regularly checking for and/or treating for Varroa mites—one of the biggest threats to honeybee health.

These tiny parasites feed on developing and adult bees and can transmit harmful viruses throughout the colony. If mite levels get too high, they can weaken bees, reduce colony health, and ultimately contribute to colony loss. 🦠🐝

That’s why regular monitoring is so important! We check our colonies, track mite levels, and take action when needed to help keep our bees healthy and thriving. 🍯❤️

Healthy bees = healthy hives! 🐝🌼

🐝🌻 POLLINATOR TIP

Plant flowers in clusters!

Instead of planting one or two of several different flowers, try planting several of the same flower together. Large patches of blooms make it easier for honeybees and other pollinators to find and collect nectar and pollen efficiently.

🌼 Bonus tip: Choose a variety of plants that bloom at different times throughout the season, so pollinators have a steady food source from spring through fall.

🐝 Bee a friend to pollinators!
