NHBA Fall Meeting Hosted by KBA
2024-10-19 09:00 - 14:30 | The Hall at Croydon Fire Department, 828 NH Route 10, Croydon, New Hampshire, 03773
2024 NHBA Fall Meeting hosted by KBA. This year’s NHBA Fall meeting will be hosted by Kearsarge Beekeepers with Speaker Cory Stevens who will be speaking on breeding for mite and disease resistance followed by a round table discussion with Cory, Troy Hall, and Shane Howard about their experiences.

A vote will be taken on some amendments to the bylaws.

And two lucky winners will go home with a certificate for a North Country Queen.

A catered meal is provided for those who sign up and pay separately.

Cory Stevens is the owner of Stevens Bee Co.

“Our main focus is selecting and breeding for mite and disease resistant honeybees. To achieve this, we use no treatments on our colonies. This is the best method we’ve found to really test breeding candidates. In addition to mite and brood disease resistance, we select for aggressive foraging and conservative use of winter stores. Harbo’s VSH assay is used to score mite resistance on overwintered colonies. Only colonies with very high VSH scores are used as breeding candidates. This ensures that we are steadily working our population to the highest achievable level of mite resistance. As a result of our choice to abstain from treatments, we can also offer raw honey guaranteed to be free from miticide and antibiotic contaminants.”
