Inspections
Persons engaged in the rearing of bees for sale are required to have their apiary inspected before any sale of bees at least once each summer season to ensure the bees are free of any disease (see 6 V.S.A. § 3028). Please request an inspection a minimum of two weeks before the intended sale of bees.
