Our West Central Indiana Beekeepers club will gather this Saturday November 16 from 9am-11am in the main building of St. Peter's Episcopal Church, 950 E. Washington St., Lebanon, IN 46052 Bob Anderson will speak about the chemistry and properties of honey, and then we'll have a Thanksgiving honey tasting. You can bring your hives' honey, any interesting honeys you've found, something to put honey onto, or just yourself! There may be a couple of meads to try as well.

ALSO - The East Central bee club is ordering package bees. The estimated delivery will be around the first two weeks of April 2025. The best guess on price for a three-pound package will be between $135.00 and $140.00. If you are interested, please let us know soon so we can ask East Central to add to their order.

It’s getting warmer. The bees have been flying. Still some cold days ahead but when do you put your swarm traps out? I’m going to get mine out by the end of March.

I found this interesting article that starts on page 8 title "What's going on in your hive this month?"

How are honey sales going? I still have a good supply if you have any buyers looking.
Who else needs customers? Should we add a contact list to our page. ?
