09-28-2019 Workshop at RCF (formally TLA)
Reply to mars1952@gmail.com with any questions. If you respond to this email I will probably never see it.
This Saturday 09-28-2019 10 am to Noon, at the BCBC Apiary at the Root Cause Farm (formally The Lord’s Acre-directions at the bottom of this page):
We have a hive that is making drones so we will try to figure out why. We will evaluate the honey stores since golden rod and aster flow and the feeding and feed more. Otherwise, it will be a short workshop.
As always I will answer your questions. Always bring some water and a veil.
I hope you can make it on Saturday.

If you don’t have a smartphone or a GPS you can find the Root Cause Farm by taking 74a (AKA The Charlotte Highway) to 3 tenths of a mile north of the Food Lion in Fairview then turn onto Joe Jenkins Rd; it is across from the red caboose at Whistle Hop (your only choice is west). The Root Cause Farm is the first driveway on the left and it will be marked with a BCBC sign.
