NJBA President's Message June/July 2009

I hope everyone had a good winter; now, if spring will finally show up. With all the rain and cold weather we have been having, it seems that spring will never get here. For new people, it would be a good idea to check your bees' food stores again. In this weather, they may be using more than they are bringing in. If they were low, and you were counting on them to bring in enough to make up the difference you may have to give them a little help. As soon as spring does get here, things should improve quickely.

On a better note, I am looking forward to the spring meeting coming up on June 6. It should be a good one, with a lot of hands-on programs. Don't forget your bee suits. I am looking forward to seeing you all there.

For those of you who sell honey products at farm markets and festivals, that time of year is right around the corner. I'm checking my inventory and making up what I need to be prepared.

I'm going to keep this letter short. I hope you have a good season and that your bees make lots of honey when the weather improves, which I'm sure will happen soon.
