Action photos from our May meeting

Posted in Photos on 7 May 2013| Leave a Comment »

On Monday, May 6 the Wilson County Beekeepers Association met at the James E. Ward Ag Center and had a big ol’ time. Jim Garrison, president of the Heartland Apicultural Society and past president of the Tennessee Beekeepers Association, joined us and spoke about nectar and pollen plants for bees. There was a packed house and we all went home with ideas about what we are going to plant for our girls this year. Herb Lester was kind enough to snap some photos and share them with us. Click the image or link below for the rest of the photos.

$10 is nothing to sneeze over, but she's about to.

Apparently, $10 is something to sneeze over…

Photos taken at the April 8, 2013 meeting posted

If you missed the WCBA meeting last night, you lost! Kent Williams was our guest speaker and as usual, he entertained and educated everyone in the room. Kent is a Master Beekeeper and a masterful speaker on the subjects of bees and beekeeping. Last night’s topic was swarms and how to reduce the likelihood that a colony will swarm, but Kent also took questions from the audience on a range of beekeeping issues. The house was filled and our very own Herb Lester was wielding his camera to catch the action. Click the link below to view photos taken at the meeting.
