What will I learn?
You will learn how honey bee colonies are structured, how bees communicate, and how to read colony behaviour during inspections. You will set up a functional apiary, assemble the right equipment, and install your first package or nucleus colony correctly. The course covers seasonal management, feeding strategies, and integrated pest management so your colonies stay healthy year-round. You will also master the full honey harvest process, from pulling supers to bottling a finished product that meets food safety standards. Advanced topics include swarm prevention, queen rearing, winter preparation, and the basics of running a profitable apiary business.
