Chantal, I'm new to beekeeping...live in 87108 near Bullhead Park. I built a top bar hive using the Carr & Bradford plans. Now I understand I need to get on a list NLT January to buy a starter nuc. Any suggestions? Thanks, Rod
Hi Chantal, I live in your neighborhood and am a top bar beekeeper. I started this past spring and have some questions about winter hives. Seems I have quite a few bees lying dead around my door every day. Is that normal? Thanks! Anita

Let me know the best way to help you put a flyer together for the 311 operaters in Albq. about handeling bee swarms.

Thanks Chantal, yep, my co worker Eric got me into it. Plus it helps my orchards.
Chantal, I haven't come across the 'map', or directions rather, which were to be 'privately emailed' to signees for the field trip tomorrow. And I did sign up weeks ago. Help! I don't know where to go tomorrow!
Thanks for prompt info, Peggy
Hi Chantal,
I just returned from a year of nursing in Haiti. While there I connected with some traditional Haitian beekeepers. I would love to share about this experience in whatever format seems best. If there is interest, I would be happy to show a little slide show at the next meeting. Thanks for all you do!
Thank you! This looks like a great group of people!
Chantel:
