JAMESTOWN – The Chautauqua County Beekeepers Association will hold its monthly meeting on Thursday at the Fluvanna Community Church, 3363 Fluvanna Ave,. in Jamestown.

At this meeting, late season activities such as harvesting the fall flow at the club’s apiary, final mite control and general hive winterization will be discussed. The meeting will also feature an informal tasting of the various honeys which club members have produced. Members so inclined are also encouraged to bring a one pound jar or two to swap. The meeting is open to the public free of charge.

Beginners are always welcome. No previous experience in beekeeping is required. For more information, e-mail the club at ccba1870@gmail.com.
