October 25, 2016 – Our monthly meeting is October 25 at the DC Co-Op Country Store, 6:00-8:00pm. The topic is “How to take care of bees/getting ready for winter”.

Also note, we are starting to get freezing temps, which means that mice are looking for winter homes and there isn’t a better place for them than in a bee hive. Be sure to have mouse excluders on with a 2 inch by 3/8 inch opening for your hives next to your boardman feeder which the bees are feeding on 2 to 1 sugar water (8 lbs sugar to 1 gallon of water).
