NEXT SCHEDULED GENERAL MEETING WILL BE MAY 1st 2025
Join Us for SHARE Day at Our Next Beekeepers’ Meeting!
Get ready to buzz with excitement—it’s SHARE Day! We’re inviting all beekeepers to come together at our upcoming meeting to exchange their most valuable tips, tricks, and techniques. Whether you’re a seasoned apiarist or just starting out, this is your chance to share your wisdom and learn from fellow beekeepers in our community.
Much like the waggle dance that guides honeybees to the richest nectar sources, our collective knowledge will lead us to the best solutions for those nagging beekeeping challenges. This is a unique opportunity to pool our expertise, spark new ideas, and strengthen our hives—together.
What to Expect: We’ll dive into a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:
- Finding the Queen: Proven strategies for spotting Her Majesty in a bustling hive.
- Mite Testing & Management: Effective methods to monitor and control varroa mites.
- Queen Excluders: Tips for using them successfully—or when to skip them.
- Smoker Fuels: The best materials to keep your smoker puffing smoothly and safely.
- Handling Defensive Hives: Techniques to calm aggressive bees and work confidently.
- Painting & Maintaining Hive Boxes: Creative and practical ideas for protecting and personalizing your equipment.
- Plus, so much more! Bring your questions, and we’ll tackle them as a group.
Show & Tell: Don’t just tell us—show us! Bring along your favorite beekeeping tools, gadgets, or equipment to demonstrate how they make your work easier. Whether it’s a trusty hive tool, a homemade frame holder, or an innovative gadget you’ve discovered, we’d love to see it in action.
Why Participate? SHARE Day is more than just a meeting—it’s a chance to connect, inspire, and grow as beekeepers. By sharing our successes (and even our failures), we’ll all leave with new insights, practical solutions, and a stronger sense of community. Let’s make our hives thrive together!
