The 2025 WNYHP,Inc summer picnic was held at Chestnut Ridge Park on August 2nd. The perfect weather was surpassed only by the great fellowship and swapping tales of beekeeping woes and successes. Patty and Rachael demonstrated their DIY uncapping tank and Dimeter showed the experimental long frame his is working on to reduce swarming and improve winter survival. Special thanks to Marylou for organizing and grillmaster Ed with an assist by Al.
