During the long, hot days of summer it's not always easy to consider the plight of our bees in the winter months. But, what happens during these hottest of days has a direct and major impact on likelihood of our colonies surviving winter.

In this PerfectBee Colony webinar, Senior Contributor and PerfectBee Ambassador Ron Lane will discuss steps to increase the chance of a strong colony, heading into winter.

We'll look at why our bees' activity in summer and the fall plays such a vital role. We'll explore the fascinating behaviors and physiology of winter bees, helping them during the colder months.

Then we will consider the checks available to the beekeeper in the fall, to help assess colony winter readiness, including understanding how treatments and supplements can help.
