Hello SDC members, We will be having our fifth SDC Beekeepers meeting of the 2025 season this month on Thursday, July 24, starting at 6:30 PM. Our meetings are held at St John’s Methodist Church located at 1200 Old Pecos Trail…..in the Choir Room. At this month’s meeting, in additions to sharing beekeeping challenges and answering members questions, we plan to discuss and present images of brood patterns…..both good brood patterns and problematic brood patterns; sharing what we can learn about the health of our hive and the queen. We hope that members will email pics of any brood patterns they are seeing that are of concern to steve1957@icloud.com <mailto:steve1957@icloud.com> so that we can share and discuss them as a group. In addition, once again we will be offering an early session from 6:00-6:30, dedicated to new beekeepers who can benefit from more basic information about hive inspections and such. Everyone can choose to come at either 6:00 or at 6:30. There will be free smoker fuel available to all attendees. We will attempt to add folks who cannot join in person via Zoom, however the best way to participate is to join us in person.
