❄️ Winter is almost here, are you ready?

🥶Betterbee's Pre-winter Checklist is here to help you prepare for the upcoming cold season.

🐝 Optional Tip: Use an upper entrance! Upper holes allow bees to exit for cleansing flights and can help moisture from building.

Don't have what you need? Find all of your winter prep supplies over on the Betterbee website.

🧹 Please pardon our mess! Tree removal is ongoing today (Mon, Sept 21) and tomorrow (Tues, Sept 22). You’re still able to swing by the store, just please be careful around the tree team.

👀 In the meantime, here's a sneak peek at the changes happening around Betterbee! We've been cleaning/painting the front porch, and this week, we're having some dead trees removed.
