| PMBA Club UpdatesBee Day is coming soon! May 11th Registration will be opening up soon. Once again we will be out at Foothills Honey Farm. Our speakers are going to be Ellen Topitzhofer on honey bee disease and Joe Maresh on how to start as a beekeeper. April 11th Meeting: Paul Stromberg As many beekeepers will be starting new colonies, we will be talking about installing nucs, package bees and performing splits. This should be a very informative topic! NUc SalesNucs are now available to club members at our online store. These are 5 frame nucs from Foothills Honey Company. We have a fantastic rate of $165. They will be available mid to late April, probably the 20th or 27th. Club Apiary
We are in the process of finalizing and creating a new club apiary out in Oregon City. We are looking to partner with "The Oregon Donkey Sanctuary" This should be an excellent educational tool for our club. More details to come soon. | MEmbershipThere are so many great reasons to join PMBA, including:
