Hello-
     A honey sales promotion event is in the planning stages for September. It
will involve the efforts of several groups in the marketing of honey for the
Jewish New Year in selected retail food outlets in upstate NY and NYC.
    I am looking for medium scale honey producers who are interested in obtaining
Kosher Certification or who already have certification. Assistance with
obtaining Kosher certification for honey will be available.
  Some basic requirements: honey must be pure New York State honey, market ready
for wholesale.
    Media promotion will be provided.
This is a great opportunity to expand your business into a quality niche market.

      Please contact me ASAP if you have any questions or interest in this sales
opportunity. Also, please pass this info on to any potential producers.
                       Thank you,
                         Pat Bono
                         Coordinator,
                         Empire State Honey Producers Association Inc.

just came across this...
 
The best way I’ve found to destroy a nest is to smother it. Fill a wheelbarrow with a big load of ice (like from a motel ice machine—its just the right size) and quickly dump it over the hole on a cool evening after the scouts have gone inside for the night. The cold will prevent their attacking you. Then cover the hole and the area around it with a heavy tarp weighted down with bricks, a piece of sheet metal, a big wooden board or other heavy object. Then cover that with soil or wood chips. Or cover the hole with a thick piece of clear plastic, seal the edges tight to the ground, and the nest will cook in the sun once the ice melts. Be sure and pick a cool night when these dangerous wasps will be unable to respond quickly—and ‘bee careful’!

We opened one of my hives today and found about 15 capped queen cells that will
probably hatch in the next few days. Does anybody need any queen cells? Not sure
what to do with them all. We took a couple of frames out with queen cells on it
and put them in a nuc box but we still have a bunch. Any suggestions?

Make the hole bigger and let the skunks clean them out. Skunks love to eat bees and hornets.
