Hiving Your Bees: Tales from the Bee Yard

The March program of the HBA will be on Tuesday, March 16, 2010, beginning at 7:30 p.m. at the Bayland Community Center. The public is invited. Admission is free.

One of the most memorable experiences in the life of many beekeepers is hiving their first package of bees. This is especially true if you have never seen it done before and all you have to go on is the written description in bee books.

For the March program, Donald Burger will lead a demonstration on how you hive your bees. This hands-on demonstration should be valuable to new beekeepers who have yet to face this experience. We will also have stories from the members about their experiences in hiving their first packages of bees. A good time should be had by all.

The Livestock Show and Rodeo is in progress until March 21, 2010. We always help with the Bee Booth, and it is not too late to sign up.

There will also be a Q & A session, so bring your hardest questions.
