Those interested in “Backyard Beekeeping” have an opportunity to learn when Frank Valadao of Soney Bees provides a demonstration at Haverhill’s Tattersall Farm.
Topics include how to find a good location for a hive, assemble it and install a package of bees or five-frame Nuc. Information on maintaining and feeding honey bees, harvesting the bees and preparing hives for winter will also be included.
Valadao is a local beekeeper and sells his products at 274 Lincoln Ave., Haverhill.
The demonstration takes place Sunday, April 7, at 1 p.m., rain or shine, at Tattersall Farm, 542 N. Broadway, Haverhill. Donations are welcomed.
