Summer is coming, so get your BEESWAX WRAPS on!  What?  It’s time to discard your plastic wrap and BEE more environmentally friendly.  Come hang out with some bee buddies on Saturday, June 14th from 10-11:30am.  This will BEE a small group workshop at the Cold Harbor Bee Farm.  I will be leading you through the entire process of making your wraps.  These wraps are so useful in the kitchen and make great gifts for family and friends.  Attendees will take home written instructions as well as several wraps that you made.  

Cost: $40/person    

Registration: Julie.waser@gmail.com 

Cold Harbor Bee Farm: 6240 Cold Harbor Rd, Mechanicsville 23111

Join us for our next club meeting on 4/10 and stay after for a plant exchange (bring seeds or cuttings or whole potten plants you’d like to donate/swap with others!). We will have guest speaker Bill Gartner, president of the Virginia State Beekeepers Association, telling us all about Demaree splits.

If you see a swarm and want a beekeeper to come remove them, please visit our Report A Honeybee Swarm page for more info on identifying and reporting swarms.
