We concluded our 2012 Beginner Beekeeping Course last night. We had a full house this year (85-90 participants), and it looks like there will be many new and enthusiastic beekeepers.

To the students--

Please register for this forum board. It is a great resource for local bee knowledge and your questions/comments will add to our local information. Use the mentor page and call mentors when you have a question/concern about your bees. It is not an imposition. You are a GCBA member, so come to the meetings, and be sure to pencil in Saturday, April 14th for our field day at Hagan Stone Park.
