Is there anything you all know about that you would like to share with the group?

I have enjoyed watching beekeeping zoom videos put on each week by the Lawrence County Alabama Extension Office.

Is there a general link to access these?

I just sat in on this conference and it was very informative! I missed most of the first hour because I forgot about the different time zones. :sad: I picked up some answers to questions that I had been pondering for a while.
There are great opportunities out there if you can catch them!
