This practice involves carefully separating bees\, brood\, and resources to create new\, self-sustaining hives. In this introduction\, we’ll explore the art and science of beekeeping splits\, discussing when\, why\, and how beekeepers perform this crucial technique to maintain healthy bee populations. \n\n\n\nParking Instructions \n\n\n\n\nParking inside El Rio Mobile Home Park is prohibited.\n\n\n\nUse Lenz Arts lot\, but avoid ivy wall/gate with “no parking” signs for after-hours staff access.\n\n\n\nMetered street parking available.

DESCRIPTION:The bees in a swarm make their choice of their new dwelling place collectively and democratically. They stake their future on a process that includes collective fact-finding\, vigorous debate\, and consensus building. We will look at how these bees evaluate potential nest sites\, advertise their discoveries to one another\, engage in open deliberation\, and choose their new home. Finally\, we will review “The Five Habits of Highly Effective Groups” that are found in honey bee swarms and that can be adopted by human groups to achieve greater collective intelligence. \n\n\n\nParking Instructions \n\n\n\n\nParking inside El Rio Mobile Home Park is prohibited.\n\n\n\nUse the Lenz Arts lot\, but avoid the ivy wall/gate with “no parking” signs for after-hours staff access.\n\n\n\nMetered street parking is available.

I run about 300 colonies in Upstate NY and South Florida. My business\, Tucka Bee LLC\, sprung from 100 swarm traps in the south. My primary mentors are Mike Palmer in upstate Vermont and Sam Comfort\, creator of the Comfort Hive. I raise about 500-1000 queens per year and also produce a bit of honey and wax. I enjoy standing in swarms\, swimming in rivers\, and long days queen-catching while my pup lounges in the sun. It’s a pirate’s life with bees!
