The Appprentice And The Bee
Overwintering – Removing Observation Panels

While our Bee Hotel thrives as a collective, it’s crucial to focus on the progress of each individual bee inside – just as we do with our Apprentices. 

As 2024 winds down, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the growth of our Bees and Apprentices alike – whether they have wings or work boots! 

With temperatures now dropping below 10°C, this is the ideal time to conduct essential checks and maintenance, ensuring everything is on track for a successful season ahead. 

In this video, we carefully begin the process of removing the observation panels from our nesting cassette, allowing us to check in on each bee’s development. 

By taking these small yet meaningful steps today, we ensure a brighter future – for our bees, our Apprentices, and the community we are building together.
