BCBC Apiary Hands On

Reply to mars1952@gmail.com with any questions. If you respond to this email I will probably never see it.
This Saturday 04-13-2019 noon to 2PM, at the BCBC Apiary at the Lord’s Acre (directions at the bottom of this page):
We will do the first inspection of all four of our hives in the BCBC bee yard. We will do a regular inspection, a Sugar Shake mite check and mark the queens if we can find them.
The next workshop is in two weeks on Saturday, April 27. We will do the first inspection of the new bees and try to mark the new queens.
I hope you can make it.
