This is our second year to offer this class virtually on Zoom. In 2021, we had over 40 students participate in this interactive session and we received great reviews.
You will need a computer with camera and audio functions along with a good internet connection. We will be teaching the class through zoom.   All students will receive a private zoom meeting link. Please do not share this link. Please register with the same email address that you will be using to attend the class. Registrations with different names and emails will not be admitted to the zoom meeting. We will be checking the roster to match up.
The class will not be recorded or distributed. The presentation will not be distributed. Attendance will be the only method of receiving class content. All students will be virtually mentored via an email group through your first season. (January-September)

April 29th Pickup Moved to May 6th

Unfortunately, the weather in California is causing delays in queens getting out to mate. This has resulted in Koehnen & Sons pushing back our April 29th order by 1 week. We are always disappointed when this happens, however some things are simply out of our control.  Please see the letter from Julie below for more details.

PACKAGE PICK UP INSTRUCTIONS:

Package pickup will be on May 6th in _New Freedom Church – Berthoud_.  we will be distributing packages at _10:30am til 12noon_   Please see the map on how to enter the facility. We ask that you line up with your vehicle and remain in your vehicle to keep the line and distribution process quick.   

We will have someone there handing out marshmallows for your queen cages.   Please be careful with swapping the cork for the marshmallow so that your queen does not escape. Queens that escape will sometimes often return to the cluster. so we ask that you wait at least 1-2 days to locate your queen in your colony if this happens.  Or you can leave the cork in place and manually release your queen 3-5 days after your package install.    We will have very few extra queens in case of a DOA. If your package happens to have a dead queen (which is rare) upon arrival.  Please contact Tim (ncbavp @nocobees.org) with-in 2 days of package pickup. You will need to bring the dead queen in her cage for the exchange.   

If you are not personally available to pick up your package, please make arrangements for someone else to pick up your package and install them for you.  You must pick up your package on May 6th between 1030am and 12noon that day only or you may lose your package.  You should install your package that day, weather permitting. If we happen to have bad weather, you should be able to keep your bees in the package for at least 2-3 additional days.  We will have further instruction on package install for bad weather if this is the case.
