The Brown County Beekeepers Association will meet April 9th at Western Brown High School’s Community Room located on the western side of the school across from the tennis courts.
At 6 p.m., members will be available to answer questions and share information on beekeeping. The educational program will begin at 7 p.m. followed by the business meeting.
The educational program will be Gathering Swarms and Swarm Trapping. Swarm season will soon be here – are you ready? Swarming is a honey bee colony’s natural means of reproduction and an opportunity for a beekeeper to acquire free bees. In this program we will cover the equipment and procedures to follow in gathering and trapping honey bee swarms. Members are asked to bring a trap that they have used to successfully trap honey bees.
