This is one of the videos I mentioned at today's meeting.
It is a recording of Betterbee's Spring "Seasons of Beekeeping" webinar. Dr. David Peck goes over what beekeepers should prepare for the upcoming Spring season. At the end, after the advertisements and sponsors acknowledgements, Dr. Peck answers attendees questions. I believe the Q&A starts around the 1:30:00 minute mark. Many of the questions are the same or at least very similar to what was discussed at today's meeting. I strongly recommend the watch for ALL beekeepers but especially those that are in their first couple seasons.
