SUMMARY:Paul Niemczura and David Harrod - Guild Monthly Meeting - Third Thursday
DESCRIPTION:Mite Bee Gone LLC is a local enterprise privately owned by Paul Niemczura that after 10 years of testing and development has registered a 100% natural Biopesticide for Varroa control that is easy to use and totally benign to your honeybees.  Our secondary goal of sustainability is looking achievable as we meet the challenge of mass production so we can provide a cost effective product to beekeepers. During our meeting we will also discuss how we can work together to make this an inclusive product as well.  Hope you are able to join us to discuss this new product on many levels. \n\n\n\nAnd \n\n\n\nPast Guild President David Harrod who will present what he knows about the new Honey Jawn™ honey extraction trailer\, the extraction committee and the results of our analysis of the potential for a Beekeeper’s Coop that we did in collaboration with the Keystone Development Center thanks to a Farm Vitality Grant from the PA Department of Agriculture. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe meet at 7pm at St. James School.  🐝
