September is a crucial time period to prepare hives for Winter. I talk about what I will be doing throughout this month, including checking for queens in our last Fall splits of the year, condensing hives, checking existing hives for queenright and feeding for Winter stores.
Chilton Bee Company produces and sells nucs, complete hives, mated queens, queen cells, honey, creamed honey, honey straws, lip balm, lotion, body butter, soap, candles and wax melts
