Can an experienced beekeeper tell me what would be a reasonable price to charge for the management of 8 colonies? This would be EVERYTHING you do to successfully manage them with visits approximately every 7-10 days throughout the seasons. This price would not include cost of bees, woodenware, feed, medications, misc. items or mileage reimbursement to and from the site. Just the set price for management or you could tell me how much per hive you would charge for the season...thanks for any responses.
