Sophomore/Sustainable Beekeeping is a five week intermediate Zoom class* (not a webinar) intended for novice beekeepers with at least one season with a hive of their own. Expanding on the beginner's curriculum, the focus of the course is to move toward a sustainable apiary with emphasis on swarm prevention, nucleus colony and honey production, and a closer look at disease control.
