The Seven Ponds Beekeeping Club in Dryden has invited us to an event
they've set up. (We invite them to events, so it's only fair.) On
Saturday, October 3rd, we are invited to take a tour of David Anthony's
honey house in Swartz Creek. David Anthony is the current president of
the Michigan Beekeepers Association. His honey house is one of
the largest around and is capable of handling a reported 120 frames per
hour. (This may be urban legend. Let's show up and find out!) The
tour starts promptly at 12 noon and refreshments will be provided. The
Anthony Bee Farm is located at 1268 Nichols Rd., Swartz Creek,
MI 48473. His phone number is 810 621-4371. There is no admission
fee, although, I'm sure donations to Seven Ponds will be appreciated.
