Hi everyone:  While Anna Chase is busy and happily raising her twins we have agreed to co-convene this group in her absence. Please don't hesitate to email us if you need help or have some ideas about furthering beekeeping in your area.  Thanks.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone else will be extracting honey soon? I have 4 (Langstroth) frames of capped honey to extract and no extractor. This is my first year.

Thanks, Asia

I Need to borrow an extractor. Any one know of one that is available?  I once saw an ad for one on Shared Harvest but cant find the ad.

Hi beekeeping enthusiasts!
I hope you are having a wonderful summer!
Maryam Henein director of a new documentary ‘Vanishing Bees’ sent an email to Village Vancouver asking if we know of a venue to screen the film on  August 9,10th, or 11th. Maryam will be in town and would also speak at the event. Please see further information (also info about the film) in her email below. Do you have any ideas where this could happen? Do you have access to a venue/ and or would be interested in helping to organize in other way eg: spreading the word or  being present at the event to collect donations/fees
 
If you contact me and then don’t hear back in a couple of days please email ross@villagevancouver.ca or randy@villagevancouver.ca as I am due to have our twins anytime now!

Dear Village Vancouver
 
I am the director of Vanishing of the Bees, narrated by Ellen Page and I will be in Vancouver August 9,10th, 11th; I would love to be able to conduct a Q&A with my film and raise awareness on how crucial these pollinators are in our lives. Ideally you could use the film as a tool to raise funds and awareness for your own group. I am more than willing to waive my speaking fee. I just need a venue and the screening license to be covered. (The license fee is $100 or $150 if it is a fundraiser).
 
Any leads or suggestions would be appreciated if you are unable to host this.

You can see our trailer here www.vanishingbees.com.
 
I have attached our BEE the Change Materials!
 
sweetly,

Hi, I'm with Viva Collingwood Multicultural Summer Plaza, and the main theme of our festival is Recycle/Repurpose/Reinvent. We would love to have someone present information on beekeeping. Our festival time begins, August 24 and runs until September 3. Please contact me if you want more information. 

Thanks, Andrea Berneckas
