Education at the CORE
We have been bleesed with educating our community through a variety of outlets. With our in class and online presentations we reached over 600 local students, Farm Day in the City we were able to share our love of bees with 1,500 students and with about 70 attendees at our first “Bee Day”. We love educating about bees and look for every opportunity to do so.
When Bees Swarm
When a colony becomes too crowded in their current home, about half of the colony will leave the hive. This is called a swarm.
The bees are very docile in this state because they have nothing to protect, and cannot risk losing population numbers, because they need as many bees as possible to build the new home.
A drone, or male bee, has no stinger
A Drone has several differences from the female worker bee. He has no stinger, his eyes are larger and they have no job in the hive.
The Queen’s court
The female bees, or worker bees, eventually have jobs outside the hive. They are the bees we see flying around. Their job changes as they age, and here you can see the ones that are nursery bees and the queens court. They tend to her by feeding and cleaning her as she spends her days inspecting cells for cleanliness and laying eggs.
