Absolutely outstanding.

She knows bees!

I think you will come away with a different attitude towards the queen after her class. I know I have.

hi guys

I'm sure this is way above my head as a beeginner but how does one find out about these classes; maybe next year or the following year for me? I love traveling & learning new things!

I heard her bees are easy to work. My buddy who took the course said you could almost work them without gloves or a Veil.

I have never seem bees that gental some people had on shorts and Sue and all her workers had short sleves and no gloves "that would not happen with my girls"

I attended the course last week and it was amazing! This is my second year attending the queen rearing course and I learn something new every year. This year was better than last! The knowledge level of this years class of students are excellent. Sue Colbey knows her bees and is a major credit to the proliferation of queen breeding of the NWC race. Sue did a superb job as always and, yes, I was the one in shorts and sandels for the entire class. NWC are extremely gentle. I have 13 colonies of NWC and 10 colonies of Italians and my NWC are the gentleless. Again, really enjoyed the course!
