Are we a highschool technology class or a collective of beekeepers? Hard to tell! We had to change locations tonight, but what a great turnout! If you’re joining the meeting late, you can find us at Room 109A instead of the library.
Honeybee enthusiasts — join us for our first fall meeting NEXT Wednesday, September 23 at the Lo-Ellen Park Secondary School library. (Doors open at 6:30, meeting 7-9 pm.) All are welcome! 🐝Let’s chat about any weird bee behaviour you’ve noticed over the summer, and have an open discussion with your thoughts & ideas.If you’re a new or aspiring beekeeper, stick around for our segments on mite treatments and fall feeding! If you’d like to participate in Otto's total dissolved solids experiment, please bring in a small sample of honey to be stored in our 'time capsule'. 🍯See you all next week!
After a busy summer, SDBA meetings will be starting back up soon! Join us on Wednesday, September 23 for the first meeting of autumn. We’re looking forward to catching up with everyone! 🌻A couple of items in the meantime:▫️If your membership is expired, keep an eye out for a reminder email from treasurer Laura. 👩🏻💻 We also have a new email address for new membership e-transfers: SDBAtreasury@gmail.com ▫️Thank you so much for thinking of us first when you have yellow-and-black stripey creatures making an unwelcome residence in your home or yard… unfortunately, we cannot respond to all requests of this nature — and we cannot assist with the removal of bumblebees, wasps or hornets. (If you can send us a clear photo in your request showing that they are honeybees, we may be able to connect you with a beekeeper who can remove them.) 🐝 See you in a few weeks!
