@4GreenEarth2 Hi Guen, I'm lucky, we don't have harsh winters here. We don't have to feed the bees during winter, my bees gather honey during winter. In the really cold areas you need to either leave the bees with a good supply of honey or feed the bees sugar water. Also i've seen people with a thick blanket over the hive to help the bees along. However the bees need to keep the brood area at around 93deg.F. Check out my upload "beekeeping: how to produce the best honey nature provides" takecare

Hi Jeff,
How would one manage to keep bees through the winter time? What method is used? Do you boil your honey?

@TigerlilyCO2011 Thanks Susan, I've normally got a good supply for my customers, but the last 12 months has been the worst i've seen it, with all the rain. I had to go & deal with some bees & wasps this afternoon, I didn't get to the bees today. I'll go tomorrow & see if there's any more hives getting ready to swarm. It's amazing how quickly they build up with the right conditions. It's pretty hot here still. I'm waiting for late afternoons. or early mornings. i'll catch ya later

You will end up with so much honey that it will last you a long while. :o)
