Beekeeping in January
When the weather was warming and the temperatures reached about 10 degrees, we observed a bee trip from the hives. Bees flew from all our hives. Some of them already carried pollen. Most likely it was the pollen of hazel trees that bloom in the surrounding area.



Because the temperature was appropriate, we began working in the bee garden. Our tractor driver Marko brought wooden beams for the pergola, which will support climbing plants.



We planted Prunus avium, Erica carnea, Viburnum plicatum `Shasta`, Hedera helix, Vine (Isabella).



Girls sowed flower seeds into pots.



They also transplanted Parthenocissus quinquefolia and Clematis montana into larger pots. When the wooden pergola is finished, we will plant them outside.



Some students dug the soil and prepared it for planting. They filled the wooden pallet with compost.
We got new hives and we will prepare them for new bee colonies.
