Annual Field Day

30 Years of Field Days, Education and Commitment for the past 105 years, Lorain County Beekeeper's has proudly served the beekeeping community in many ways. Working together, Queen Right Colonies and LCBA have always set the bar high when it comes to education and this year is no different, but could possibly be the best ever.

Industry leaders Randy Oliver and Ray Olivarez will be with us for the day and you don't want to miss it! 

We have something different this year: Peer Beekeeping Lessons: three breakout sessions in rapid succession. The goal is to have hard-hitting, point-on, no-nonsense, 15-minute classes with your peers. These three lessons will cover queen introduction, hive evaluation, and queen evaluation in one hour's time. Each lessons will repeat three times in one hour, every 15 minutes. You can take all three lessons or repeat them as many times as you wish, up to three times, to make sure you understand the subject matter. There will be time after the one-hour period to ask questions, if you wish. The plan is to use open hives for these lessons, but this will depend on the presenter and their comfort level.

Food, fun, raffles, door prizes and a huge gathering of beekeepers. An educational day to spend with new and old friends on a 17-acre Century Old farm. Something for everyone, the annual Alpaca shearing, Das Amish Haus Antiques Shop, Ohio's largest retailer of Beekeeping equipment, live Queens and bees.
