Etowah River Beekeepers Summer Picnic 2026!
Thank you to all who attended!

We had an equipment repair workshop, a honey extraction demonstration, how to make lip balm and candles, discussion about Integrated Pest Management, some door prizes and all accompanied by delicious food!

It's always great to see both familiar faces as well as new ones!

This is just one of the many benefits of membership. We invite you to join us!

Agriculture officials are asking Georgians to keep an eye out for yellow-legged hornets. The invasive insects eat honeybees, which are vital for pollinating many crops.
