No regular Guild meeting this month

Just a reminder that we will not be having a regular Guild meeting this month. Instead, the steering committee will be meeting to organize the meeting topics and speakers for the new year.

We will resume our regular meetings next month on February 1st. If you are interested in getting into beekeeping, the February meeting is the one to attend! We will be talking about starting up you apiary for the new season. The exact meeting agenda is still to be set, but will likely include lots of information for newcomers and for current beekeepers coming out of the winter season!

See you next month!
