Saturday Workshops

7/15/2023 - The weather started with a welcomed rain to cool everything down. Equipment donated to CBA needed to be cleaned and repaired for future use. Everyone found something to do and we got a great assembly line scraping wax, cleaning frames and finally a good power wash.

Lunch time and Kase Donahue shared his grilling skills to cook some cheese burgers. The tiny "bought in a pinch" grill might have caught on fire but the burgers were perfection!

The day ended with several new members getting their pick of the equipment to take home and add to their apiary.

​It was a great day hanging out with CBA!

Educational Events and Guest Speakers

Local groups often contact CBA requesting a local beekeeper to visit a classroom/event to talk about honeybees and pollinators.  

We invite guest speakers including Master Beekeepers to visit CBA meetings and share their best practices.
