Hello Fellow Beekeepers,
We wanted to make you aware of the 28th annual Young Harris Beekeeping Institute, May 22-25, on the campus of Young Harris College in Towns County. This is the most comprehensive beekeeping educational event in the Southeast, offering a full plate of classes for anyone interested in beekeeping, from brand-new beginner to advanced. The Institute is home to the Georgia Master Beekeeper program and the Welsh honey judge training program. Our faculty include invited experts from University of Sussex in UK, NC State, and Emory – as well as over 25 home-grown Georgia beekeeping educators. This is the Big Event of the year for anyone interested in learning to keep bees and promote pollinators.
Hope to see you there!
Take care,
University of Georgia Bee Lab Crew

P. S. Have you seen our newest column in Bee Culture? It’s called ALL AROUND THE BEEYARD. Simply put, it’s a page of good ideas sent in by readers to make life in bees faster, simpler, easier, cheaper and better. Good ideas home grown and shared by those who saw a good idea. If you have a good idea you’d like to share, give us a paragraph or two on what it is, and a drawing or photo of what it looks like if that is needed to better share the idea. Send it in an email to Jerry@Beeculture.com, with All Around in the subject line. Best of the month wins $100.00. The others get a free 1 year subscription. How cool is that?
