It’s Fall. Get Ready For Winter

Hi, we are beekeepers David and Sheri Burns. It’s the first day of fall and winter is coming soon. Are your bees ready? Do you know what to do over the next few months to properly prepare your bees for winter?

One Thing You Probably Learned This Year Is That You Need To Learn More

It seems so hands free and easy but beekeeping requires a certain degree of knowledge, skill and perfect timing to ensure a colony’s health. With so many new challenges and options a beginners class is essential. Join us on Saturday Oct. 15th and fill in your knowledge gaps. Stop worry and wondering if you are managing your bees the right way. We have a few spots still open. Learn More

Beekeeping Mentorship Program

In May of this year I started a Beekeeping Mentorship program that has been so well received by beekeepers from around the country.

For less than $5 a week, you have access to my personal cell phone number and email. You can call me, text or email me when you have a question about your bees. Beekeepers send me videos, photos or questions about what they should do next. PLUS you also receive a weekly tip and and a weekly instructional beekeeping video. During the next few months I’ll be focusing on Spring Management tips and videos to prepare beekeepers for swarm control, making splits, controlling mites in the spring and queen rearing. Wouldn’t it be nice to have an EAS Certified Master Beekeeper you could talk to about your bees and get sound advice! Let’s face it, sometimes you feel all alone in your new hobby. Spots are limited so if you are interested check it out today by clicking here.

How Do You Keep Mice Out Of The Hive?

Mice are coming in! They know it’s fall and winter is coming and your hives make a nice cozy place mice can raise their young. The only problem is they also want to kill your colony. Do something now! Watch my new video below and get your hives ready for winter:

Beekeepers know that our Winter-Bee-Kind makes a difference in the winter. It

provides carbs and proteins, insulates the top to prevent condensation and provides an upper entrance. Place your order now! We begin shipping these in November. You can place it on the hive anytime. Our Winter-Bee-Kinds start shipping in November in the order the orders were placed. So do not delay. Order Now!

It is essential that we feed bees in the fall. Even if they have plenty of honey now, what if they eat it all before winter starts. They still have to go through the rest of September, October, November and most of December before winter even arrives. And during this time there is hardly anything out there for them to gather. Our feeding board is perfect for fall and spring. Holes are lined with screen to make changing jars easy. Click here to get your feeding board today. This ships within 5 business days. Order now!

If you have kept bees very long you know how frustrating it is when your bees swarm and you have nothing to put them in. You could have caught your swarm and had a new hive, but the swarm only remained on your property a few hours and then flew off. In the Spring when you try to order beekeeping equipment suppliers are swamped and shipping is slow. Why not get that new hive now. You know you are going to need it. Buy it now and have it on hand! Our hives are made right here in central Illinois by master craftsmen. Before you run out and buy from other places, please consider supporting our family business. We’ve worked hard for you over the last 10 years to give you free beekeeping lessons and videos. Your return support is greatly appreciated. Check out our complete line of hives. Thank you!

Thanks For Your Continued Support!!

I had to buy new tires for my truck. I usually go to a huge warehouse store because they are cheaper. But, Aaron walked in last spring and bought hives from us and took a class. He runs a local tire company. He could have bought his hives from huge stores but he decided to come to us, a family business like he runs. I asked him for a quote for my tires and he beat the big warehouse. Even if he had been a little more expensive it would have been the right thing for me to do. I can’t tell you how good I felt buying from a family business. This is the way it should be! Before you consider other places, give us a chance to earn your beekeeping business. We are a hard working family business that depends on great customers like you. Thank you for your loyalty.

Sincerely,

David and Sheri Burns
