Club member Gunny Gundrum is looking to sell all of his 40 years’ worth of beekeeping equipment. This includes new bottom boards, frames, covers, packages of foundation, as well as used boxes, a 4-frame hand powered extractor with settling tank, jars, swarm traps, stainless steel drain trays, two boxes of combs with honey and 4+ boxes of frames with drawn comb. Also included is a hive of bees, new this year from Antoine, that we mite tested (very low 2/300 bees) and that are doing very well.  Gunny hopes to sell the whole collection in one sale. If you are interested call him at 518-368-3409 or gunj200@yahoo.com . If you are interested in only parts of what he has to sell you can leave him a message but he's really hoping to sell it all as a complete package.

As always, if you would prefer to receive these notices via e-mail, please let Erin Kiley know: emkiley@gmail.com , or call 603-724-0514 or 413-662-5144.
