Calendar for the Management of Beekeeping
Overview
Links below are for each month in the year. The activities listed represent the best approaches for central Ohio.

With each entry is information from the Rev. L.L. Langstroth's, A Practical Treatise on the Hive and Honey-Bee, 2d Edition, 1857, starting on pg. 458. Whilst it is certainly a bit old, it is still a good starting point for planning. That is shown in a box like this one. |
That said, do keep global warming in mind. For example, in Ohio where I live, we have changed from Zone 5 in 1990 to Zone 6a in 2012. So take these changes into consideration as you plan your activities.
