Bee Aware Series | Stay or Swarm: Making the Split Before They Do

Swarm season’s knockin’, and it’s time to get ahead of the buzz! In this episode of Bee Aware, we’re diving into the signs of an impending swarm and walkin’ through a pre-split strategy to keep our hives healthy and productive. We’ll check for queen cells, hive space, and colony strength—then show y’all how to split a hive the natural way, with a little Appalachian know-how and a whole lotta respect for the bees.

🐝 Whether you’re new to beekeeping or just wanna see how it’s done without losing half your hive to the woods—this one’s for you.

🐝 Watch live, learn a little, and get inspired to keep the buzz alive in your own backyard.
