August and September Meetings
Both the August and September will be open discussion formats. There will be short business meetings with discussion following. Probable topics will include summer and fall mite control, honey harvesting, honey marketing, winter preparation, etc.
ECWBA Library
The ECWBA maintains a library from which members can check out beekeeping books. Andy Krueger has been doing a great job as our association librarian. If you have ECWBA books, please bring them back so we can keep those books circulating. If you are exploring something new in beekeeping, the library probably has a book or DVD for you to check out. This is a valuable resource – use it to your advantage!!!
Beekeeping Notes:
• This year’s honey harvest is almost here. Arrange for extracting equipment, comb honey handling equipment, storage containers (small jars up to 5 gal. pails), etc.
• Start thinking about fall and winter. Develop a plan for overwintering to include fall feeding, medications, and hive covers.
Best of Beekeeping,
Jeff Champeau
