Beekeeping 101
Taught by Tim
Tim has been keeping bees for over a decade and explaining them to anyone who will listen for just as long. A transplant from the Midwest, he started a small apiary in Brooklyn the week after it was legalized.

This is an old class! Enjoy the notes, and check out the current courses.
There's an old saying that I like: Two beekeepers, three opinions.
Beekeeping as an art and a science has many schools of thought and even more opinions. In this class, I will teach you the basics of beekeeping with both bee behavior and science as a foundation. Together, we will clear a path through all the obstacles and opinions while laying the groundwork for understanding the apiary essentials.
With a firm grasp of good beekeeping practices and the science behind them, I hope that you will leave this class excited and able to further explore this amazing hobby and enjoy it as much as I do.
A few things we'll learn about:
-Matriarchs and Regicide: Power Struggles, Murder, and Bee Social Structure
-Eww: Where Honey Comes From and A Tasty Taste Test
-Bee Still My Aching Back: Hive Inspections and Maintenance
-Bees in The Boroughs: The Travails of Urban Beekeeping
Tim keeps an awesome beekeeping blog over here!
