Field Day updates
Added description of Field Day theme for 2017 – Keeping Honeybees Healthy, added link to presenters list. See Events/Field Day 2017
Dave Wattles of Massachusetts Division of Fisheries & Wildlife provided some very useful information about bears and bees. Go to “Protect your bees from bears” under “Useful Info”
Remember – bees need water – for hive cooling, making brood food, and processing crystallized honey. Provide a water source, like a bird bath with flat stones, and keep it filled all summer long.
