Description:
Central Virginia Beekeepers Association will present a hybrid County sponsored course for new or prospective beekeepers. Via zoom we will present material on bee biology, equipment, setting up a hive, seasonal management, disease and pest prevention and much more. Outdoor COVID compliant small group sessions will be offered to supplement each topic. Participants will be offered membership in CVBA as well as experienced mentors and opportunities for fieldwork as covid restrictions allow.
The course requires a copy of The Beekeepers Handbook, Fourth Edition, by Dianna Sammataro which may be ordered here:

This book should be acquired before the start of the class. There will be a reading assignment to complete before the first class.
