I see that Bee Day is April 7th 2011 but I also thought there was another Bee Day scheduled for April 2nd. Does anyone have information on this?
During the meeting Monday at CCC I though someone talked about there being a Bee Day April 2nd.
Thanks!!

Yes, time does fly. I am planning on bringing a hive or two of bees for the bee day. Anyone out there need or want more new deep boxes. I got double ordered on bee boxes and now have more than needed. $13.00/box or $25.00 for two. They are assembled, just not painted yet. I can bring them to the bee gathering on Saturday. Call 503-879-9006 and leave a message.
For the brand new beekeepers - is there something in particular you would want to see on Saturday?? Nuc's, deeps, mediums, feed??? Keep in mind we are just starting the year now. Yeah, yeah I know some of the people have bursting hives, have been to Ca. and may be ready to do splits. Mine are not like that.
