Aug. 19 Meeting – Dealing with the Dearth

beehivesdearth

The Northeast NJ Beekeepers will be talking about dealing with the dearth when pollen and nectar flow shuts down for our bees. Dearths are hard on our bees that have grown substantially in numbers over the summer. We will discuss why feeding is crucial now, feeding options and looking for signs of the next nectar flow.

It’sĀ almost Honey Cup time and we will discuss how to enter your honey. We will also have mite treatments for sale.

Our meetings are always the third Friday of every month, beginning at 7:30 pm. We meet at Ramapo College 505 Ramapo Valley Road Mahwah, NJ in the Anisfield School of Business, Room 135S.
