Commercial Beekeeper and Queen Breeder, Jose Uribe, begins getting ready for the day at 2:30am. We need to head from Glenn County to Butte County to pick up a load of bees and drive them up to Plumas County before the day warms up and the bees start flying. We are in a race against the clock.
Upon arriving in Plumas County, Jose cannot find a lighter to smoke the bees back into the hives. He begins getting to work- taking down the old electric fence from last year and moving the yard about 100 yards deeper into the property so they are not a nuisance to visitors who will stay at the cabin.
Jose then sets up a new electric fence setup and chats a little before he finishes unloading. After unloading all of the hives, he digs into a couple and shares how he spots and marks a queen.
If you placed an order for queens with us this year… thank you! We are passionate about what we do and are working on making a big difference in the industry. If you would like to place an order, please contact us at 530-354-7794 or visit our website at www.thecaliforniabeekeeper.com.
If you are new to our channel, welcome! We are a small family owned and operated commercial apiary located in Northern California. We've been commercial beekeeping for the past 12 years, but branched off and opened Uribe Honey Bees in January of 2019. Shortly after we launched our KZfaq channel in April of 2020. We specialize in queen breeding, pollination services, hive management and brokering.
Thank you for watching and supporting us! We love you guys!
