LOOKING FOR 2010 DEMO HOSTS
Somehow, we made this season work with some poor attendance, and some great turnouts! Next year, I'd like to continue with the beekeeping demonstrations in the Islands, but this time at your place... If you are interested in having members of our club and/or the public join you while an enthusiastic mentor leads us through the ins and outs of your hives, then please let me know. I would like to set up a schedule, May through October, for once monthly demos spread throughout the Islands. We will cover the usual stuff, like Springtime hive inspections, supering, honey harvesting, hive splitting & combining, feeding bees and putting them to bed for the winter, as well as any other topics that come up in your hives. First come first serve sounds fair to me, so please lets get the calendar set up so that we can spread the word! Your hives must be in the Islands to host a demo.

We'd love to host a demo at our place at 840 Station Rd in North Hero.

great! since you're the first to offer, you get dibs on which demo! Would you like the thorough Springtime hive inspection, or some other?
ReplyDeleteJP- I am going to begin a new adventure in beekeeping this spring. I can't wait, until then I research and drool over the catalogs. Maybe a demo in Idaho would be fitting?
