Looking for Mentor - Julian, NC
Posted: Fri Sep 15, 2017 12:17 pm
Howdy folks!
I live in Julian, NC and would like to meet a mentor or other beekeepers in the area to work with and learn best practices. I am new to beekeeping and setup my first hive this past spring. The hive appears to be doing well. I had a few beetles in the summer that the bees mostly took care of themselves and I helped with a trap and some squishing.
If it is not too late in the year, I'd like to do an inspection with a more experienced beekeeper; maybe inspect/treat for mites if needed, and see if there are any recommendations before winter.
I plan to get 1 or maybe 2 more packages in the spring.
Thank you,
Mike Miller
