[SDCBeeks] Reminder: SdC Beekeepers meeting today, Aug. 16th, 6:30 p.m., w/ special guest Steve Wall

[Kate Whealen]

Our monthly SDC Beekeepers Meeting will be held today, August 16th starting at 6:30 p.m.

This month we are excited to have Sante Fe’s own Steve Wall of Buckin’ Bees join us.  Steve will share his process for mite testing/treatment as well as fall hive management (preparation for winter).  Steve has been beekeeping since 2000 and maintains about 100 Lanstroth hives throughout the Santa Fe area and is a “fixture” at the Santa Fe Farmers Market each Saturday during the season.

Our in person meeting will be held a the Unitarian Universalist Church, located at 107 W Barcelona Rd. here in Santa Fe. After announcements and brief lecture period we will travel a short distance to Cindy & Dean Fry’s apiary where Steve Wall will demonstrate how to perform a sugar roll test for varroa mites. Please bring a veil/protective gear for the demonstration.

For those unable to attend in person, please join us via Zoom for the lecture portion:
