2024 Outyard day RESCHEDULED

Gain hands on experience under the guidance of experienced beekeepers. We will open active beehives and perform inspections, pointing out what to look for, how to perform an inspection, how to light a smoker, and more. Please be sure to bring  your protective equipment for working around live bees.

This is a hands-on experience with four stations where beginning or newer beekeepers can review and learn about: equipment and hive placements, pests and treatments throughout the year, feeders and nutrition during the season, and then hands-on in the hives to identify queen, eggs and learn to manipulate frames. Saturday, May 4 from 10-12:30 p.m. at the Sisters of St. Joseph Barn, 1020 W. State Street, Baden, PA 15005. Bring you jacket, bee veil and gloves to get into the bees. Also, bring a refillable water bottle. Look for BEE SIGNS on State Street and wind your to the back of the buildings. Parking is near barn area. In case you get lost call Sr. Lyn, 412-855-0710.
