Swarm Capture - Video




Keeping Backyard Bees show

Summary: Watch as Editor Russell Mullin captures a swarm. Swarms take place when a hive has grown too large and splits in two. Then, a queen leaves the original hive with a number of worker bees.   Thinking about starting your own apiary but don’t know where to begin? Find out how easy it is to become a backyard beekeeper at our Basics of Beekeeping workshop with Brushy Mountain Bee Farm! Friday, Sept. 14, at Seven Springs Mountain Resort, Pa., in conjunction with the MOTHER EARTH NEWS FAIR. Learn more and reserve your spot today. https://www.motherearthnews.com/store/Offer/MMEPCIZ2   This video was shared to us from the MOTHER EARTH NEWS Youtube Channel!
