Good job! The only club that is closest to me only meets on Mondays and I'm not able to make most of the meetings. The forum is great but I wish I could meet face to face with other beeks more often.

At the rate he is going it wont be long before honey production over takes the maple syrup production.
I congratulate you on all the success of developing the interest in beekeeping and mentering it provides to the newer beekeepers. Which at only keeping bees for 3 years you fall into that category your self. Weather runs on a 8 year cycle so what we did and how it worked for us one year may not work out the same the next year. it is only through time that we begin to factor in some of these variable into our beekeeping practices.
Keep up the good work Don.
