What’s the Buzz all about?

Are you a new or experienced beekeeper?  An energetic gardener or flower enthusiast?

The Hamburg Fair Association in cooperation with the Lyme Pollinator Pathway is hosting a presentation on land use practices that can enhance agriculture and a presentation on beekeeping in CT with Steve Dinsmore, past president of the Connecticut Beekeepers Association.   

The presentation will include a viewing of Doug Tallamy’s presentation “Restoring the Little Things That Run the World” – an impactful talk that reviews modifications in land use practices that can enhance agriculture and sustain the diverse bee and animal communities which feed on them. 

The video will be followed by a very special in-person presentation about the problems with beekeeping in Connecticut.  Steve will discuss the history of beekeeping and the importance of beekeeping in today’s world.  He will also cover the threats that bees are facing today as well as the importance of utilizing a native landscape in order to create an ideal bee-friendly environment.

This afternoon presentation will coincide with the Lyme Granges’ Annual Plant Sale from 9:00-1:00pm.   This event is free and open to the public, but space is limited. Register online.
