Meeting Cancelled!!!

Monday night May 2, 2022 - Zilker Botanical Garden Meeting space is closed to the groups that meet there, they have a private event that had that week as their back up date for a PAID event. Their money trumped ours. :) I think the easiest thing to do is just to cancel our May meeting and see everyone back on JUNE 6th at ZBG. I know everyone is just getting their bees and so excited! We have nuc pick ups this week at Texas Honey Bee Farm, too! :)

BEE FUN for all! Enjoy!
