Beekeeping training (November 16, 2019)

We spent all day Saturday, November 16, in a beginner beekeeping class at Oakley Family Apiaries in Elm Mott.  We plan to start with two hives at Cornerstone in April.  

Hives hold eight frames.  This frame, filled with honey, weighs about six pounds.  We wore gloves to cover our hands against bee stings. Okay, what's with the purse?  Such a grandma!
