There is an opportunity for anyone interested in doing a cut out in Canandaigua, Beeman Street. They are in the soffit of the second story and maybe beyond that. A lift would be a helpful tool to have as it's about 25' off the ground. If interested give Bruce Hovey a text or reply to this.

Is anyone available to volunteer at the NY State Fair on Thursday? I have parking pass and tickets if you can. Call or text me 585-739-4737

You may have noticed multiple vendors in the honey spot this year. That's because this season, our honey vendor is the Ontario Finger Lakes Beekeepers Association. That means several members of the beekeepers association have been rotating different weeks in the honey spot. The rotating vendors include Riedman Happy Hives (who you've known and loved for many years) and new additions:
Taylor Made Goods
Tom Kingsley “PaPa’s Homegrown”
Barbara Cummings
Castle Creek Gardens
Laurie B’s Bees
Home Brood Honey

So be sure to stop by every Saturday as each vendor offers their own selection of honey and hive products.

It is that time of year for us to start to round up some volunteers to help us with the honey booth! This is our biggest and main fundraiser for the year. Profits from the sales at our booth, help to fund our scholarship endeavors, as well as our new 4H Beekeeper program. If you know a thing or two....
