Brian Campbell replied to Shauna Mack's discussion Moving hives in the group Beekeeping Network

"Hi Shauna; Move the bees at night. I use a migratory cover, it has a front and a back lip but no sides, easier to wrap a strap around. Use a strip of 1/8th mesh screen to close the bottom entrance, switch the telescoping cover for the…"

As for bee keeping, I am going to see if my dad and mom could attend your workshop. They live on Bowen Island and have the perfect environment for honey bees!

One other thing, if you would like I do a sustainability focused blog and I would be more than happy to post the event details of your bee keeping workshop to bring more awareness in the kitsilano community. It would be posted on my work blog: http://www.myessentia.com/blog/vancouver/

I am always looking for sustainability and green focused events to bring awareness to.

Let me know what you think, would be happy to help.

Have a great day and weekend,

Crystal
