Set the extractor out in the yard to dry after cleaning it up. Later I found a visitor looking for anything I might have missed. I guess everyone likes a little honey!!

You are welcome to join us at our monthly meeting of our group with a vision of a community apiary and garden. Charleston Community Bee Gardens is a place to promote awareness and education of the art of beekeeping and for beekeepers with no place to keep bees. Everyone is welcome to attend and learn about bees.

We are going to update everyone on upcoming local events (training, conferences, and classes), and we will be holding a training lesson on queen cells and pheromones. Lots of items will be raffled to members.

We meet this Thursday evening June 11th at 6:30PM at the Blackbaud building 65 Fairchild St., Daniel Island. There is ample parking in the rear of the building.
