Are Treatment Free Bees Possible?

​

Our featured speaker in November was Master Beekeeper Dav Freedman.

He has been successful in his efforts to have treatment free bees.

It was a really fascinating program on a topic that we have not
previously discussed at length. 

​

We enjoyed the earlier start with refreshments at 6:30

It was suggested that we continue to do that at each meeting.
