Two upcoming events from the Northern Berkshire Beekeepers

Over Wintering Nucs Demo 
Antoine Fahey is doing a presentation on overwintering nucs at Sheep Hill, Williamstown Rural Lands, Route 7, Williamstown, MA on June 18th.  He's going to do the demonstration in the bee yard. He'll also have queens for sale there if beekeepers want to order them. Space is limited and there is a $2.00 donation to Sheep Hill because they're unable to rent the property because of bees flying. Due to this event’s guidelines, there can’t be any walk-ins on that day.  Email emailberkshirecountybeekeepers@hotmail.com to register and to place an order for queens. 




Mite Monitoring

Chris Cripps is doing mite assessment on August 13th that will demonstrate a sugar shake in the Beeyard at Sheephill (see above for location details), which should be helpful for new beekeepers. Email emailberkshirecountybeekeepers@hotmail.com for more information.
