Note from the President - Steven Briegel

Our last meeting had good information on a laying worker. I learned what that some workers lay eggs even if the queen is present.

Looking forward to our Honey contest next month. Reach out if any questions on what to bring. Call me at 832-845-5142. 

 We have a monthly Bee Breakfast. We meet at 8am in Doylestown on the first Thursday of the month. The Cafe with Soul is the name of the diner.
