WCB meeting: March 14

Join us on Saturday, March 14th from 1:00-3:00 for a meeting at the Moore Free Library in Newfane.  The topic is Dead-Out Analysis.

We will conduct a hive necropsy of a dead-out to see what we can learn.  Jeff B will walk us through examining the hive.  He will tell us how to collect samples of dead bees and send them off to the lab. for analysis.   Bring your detective skills!  We will also discuss how to clean up your equipment and protect your resources for use next spring.
