Package Pick-up day, April 15th

2009 - 2010 Bee Schools have ended and the coordinated group purchases of Packages and Nucs are right around the corner.

Package Pick-up day is April 15th.  We will be meeting David Smith of Sparky's Apiaries (who will be bringing packages back from Georgia) at the Kennebunk Northbound service plaza on the evening of April 15th.  Time to be determined.

David will call me in the afternoon when he gets near New England with an estimated arrival time.  I will post that time here on my website and also put it on my home and cell answering machines.  Those getting packages should have their sugar water ready before the bees come, as well as a small spray bottle to feed the bees that evening.  Installation should be done April 16th mid morning, rain or shine.   I will be on hand at the Service Plaza to talk you through installation one last time.

Nucs (either from me or from Swan's Honey in Albion) will be ready for their new homes in May.  These dates are yet to be determined.  Please check back here for more information as we get closer to the end of the month.

Best to all, Congratulations on completing bee school, happy spring.
