What do I feed the honey bee in the spring?

It is best to feed a mixture of sugar and water in a one to one ratio. The bees will use the sugar syrup mixture until natural sources are available. In the
fall, use a two part sugar to one part water sugar syrup mixture if the bees do not have adequate winter stores. You can also stimulate the honey bees to raise brood by feeding them Dadant's Brood Builder.
