Bees know how to stay warm when it's cold out. They huddle together, all sharing a responsibility to keep the colony warm.

We've had a lot of inquiries about the bees and this freeze. Let me try to explain how the bees survive winter weather.

When it gets cold, honey bees form a tight “winter cluster” around the queen and the brood area (if any). Think of it like a living, breathing insulation ball:

Outer bees = insulation jacket.
Bees on the outside pack closely together to reduce heat loss and block drafts. They’re cooler and more still, acting like the “shell” of the cluster.

Inner bees = heaters. Bees in the center generate heat by vibrating their flight muscles (the same muscles used for flying), but they don’t flap their wings this “shivering” turns food energy (honey) into warmth.

They rotate to share the job. Bees take turns outer bees gradually move inward to warm up, and warmer bees move outward to replace them. This slow, constant rotation prevents the outside bees from getting dangerously cold.

The cluster adjusts like a thermostat. When it’s colder, the cluster tightens to conserve heat. When it warms up a bit, it loosens so bees can move to nearby honey stores and ventilate.

IMO, the most important product from the beehive - propolis - is also recycled by honeybees.
