MOORESVILLE – “Beekeeping Basics” is the topic at the next free nature program sponsored by Lake Norman Wildlife Conservationists. The meeting is at 6pm Thursday, Jan. 10, in the Youth Services Room of Mooresville Public Library, 304 S. Main St.
Terry Pupp, owner of Four Oaks Honeybees in Iredell County, will discuss bees, beekeeping, and some of the challenges of the modern-day beekeeper. He will bring some of the “tools of the trade,” such as a smoker, a jacket and a hive complete with honeycombs. No bees will attend, as they are hibernating this time of year!
No reservations are required for this program made possible by LNWC, a chapter of the North Carolina Wildlife Federation whose mission is to protect and enhance wildlife habitats in and around Lake Norman for all to enjoy. Visit www.lakenormanwildlife.org or call 704-895-5686 for more information.
