Join Seven Ponds Beekeepers for a beekeeping presentation by Apiculture Extension Educator Ana Heck on evaluating honey bee brood frames. Learn to distinguish between healthy and sick brood and to recognize signs of European Foulbrood, American Foulbrood, chalkbrood, and varroa parasitic mite brood syndrome.

Weather permitting, the club will hold a hive inspection demonstration at 5:30 p.m. The club's meeting will start at 7:00 p.m., and the presentation on evaluating honey bee brood frames will begin around 7:30 p.m.

Seven Ponds Beekeepers meetings are open to everyone, including non-members. Beekeepers and those interested in getting started with beekeeping can find a local beekeeping club in Michigan.
